What is the grey stuff put down in the outfield?

 

[Maroon Eagle]

Gravel?

What is the grey stuff put down in the outfield?

I'm assuming pea gravel. Most likely part of the water drainage system. I'm assuming it is designed to keep the field from holding any water at all.

I'm sure this has been discussed, but is that lightening bolt - zigzag **** going to be in play?

My understanding was the wall closest to the field will be the foul line and the foul pole will be way up there where the wall turns. I think that means if it hits the wall before the ground it is foul?? The curved wall is fair game so that should be interesting...

Crushed limestone....

Soaked in Dales.

The outfield wall might be where the thin fence is--there are posts in the ground? The yellow zigzags there currently may be the back of the front row lounge spots in right field. However, while the thin fence and posts are straight there in right field, this rendering (which seems to be the latest/most accurate?) has zig zags as part of the outfield wall in center and left.

Now I'm not so sure. Maybe those aren't really posts for a new wall under the thin fence. Maybe the yellow zig zag walls will be the new outfield wall and the first row of lounge spots will be behind it. Zig zag outfield wall all the way around?

Weren't people concerned that the circle mezzanine was going to be smaller than originally planned? It looks like it's going to be pretty good size although we can't see where the other side is in that picture.

Has anybody heard where fall practice will be held? Surely, all practices will not be held indoors.

It's to keep out Mole Crickets.

What's the over/under on "Steve Bartman" incidents down the RF line? (NM)

wqwwqew

 

[EurekaDog]

Center-fielders are gonna be NOT going all out when they're tracking a ...

flay ball approaching the fence in the alleys. If the fence juts out like it seems, there could be some serious injuries.

Mole Cricket Repellent

 

[Shamoan]

one important thing you can seemingly assume, we can now determine the height of the 360* concourse, which should be the height of the top of the wall assuming the lower grandstands continue up. lower grandstands look to be 20ish rows.

So, A Ball down the first base line that falls into the Mezzanine will be a Home Run if inside of the foul pole? That will be a nice gift to anyone who can place a hit down the first base line.

 

[57stratdawg]

Haha. The angles at NewDNF are going to make Fenway look like a Little League field.

 

[RocketDawg]

OM is going to let us use their field for practice .... **

What is the grey stuff put down in the outfield?

Hopefully it is a dead Indian barrier that actually works this time around

Maybe the Dales, mole crickets and pea gravel under the playing surface will appease the Dead Injuns. Or at least obscure their view.

 

[bulldogcountry1]

The outfield fence will be essentially the same layout as before. The rendering isn't accurate.

Gray stuff.

 

[Shamoan]

the port-a-john is right at 3rd base. how fitting considering recent history.
