re: Post pics of your NCAA regional crowds yesterday

So it wasn’t a real question and you were trolling.

No, cocksmoke-these are bullpens. Do you know what they’re for and why they’re there?

What your picture of is the right field. There is a path between the right field stands and the right field wall. It is used so people and inanimate objects may move freely in that area without hinderance.

Why? Because the baseball gods said let there be road. And so it was. And it was good.

Also, because historically, there was nothing out there except a hill that no one sat on because the hill behind left field was more accessible. As attendance grew over the past several years, they needed a place to put more people and stands, so they put them out there, and the road has stayed.
