Haven't seen anything, but I know Sandy's moved a base or two a few inches to align everything, but I have heard that one club found the distance between hill and plate was closer to 62 feet than 60 feet 6 inches.

Hmmmm SC I hope that is our ground in Winter as that will have me feeling much better  I wonder if the audit included sun position and glare for evening games ? Tough one to assess with the sun moving position over Summer but there are a few grounds that shouldnt be used at certain times of the year later in the day if there is no cloud cover in my view. |

Ours was found to be 61 feet 3. Is anyone present from the clubs when these audits are done? And how often are they done? |

Do they have to visit the grounds 3 times in a year? Oh right, the bases move by themselves throughout the season |

Barb, it wouldn't matter what the distance the left field fence was @ the Nation's ground, you still couldn't hit one out of there, as to the hitters they still have to hit the ball mate ! ! ! !

Heckle me this heckle me that... In fact it's the only fence I've cleared in multiples. Problem is, I've pitched a lot more over that fence than I reckon I'll ever hit.  |

Does it only pick up in the summer? |
