Plus I love what you've done w/ the place, gygax - is that sponge painting? Tres chic!

The funny thing about guys like Deer and Incaviglia is that they were absolute freaks for striking out as much as they did, whereas today there are bunches of hitters that are that bad about the K (and a bunch play for Cinci).

Recent pitching phenoms that are hanging on as long relief dregs:

Todd Van Poppel (AKA the next Nolan Ryan)
Cal Elred (AKA the next Tom Seaver)
Pat Mahomes (AKA the next Doc Gooden)

"Pat Mahomes" could be it's own Berman Nickname.

not really dimensions so much, but general RFK wackiness involving its conversion between soccer and baseball (at a cost of $40K each time):

Morehead State, who plays against Illinois today and is a popular upset pick, has maybe the weirdest baseball field in the country. Haven for lefties. Apparently they're unable to push the right field fence back because there's a species of endangered salamanders living there? pic.twitter.com/c3VAD5Ihrw

I would put my everyday CF in left, my RF in center and my LF in right and just pray a dying-quail-peeler doesn't end up in the corner.
