nopeWhat Would Be An Average Speed For A Fastball Pitched by an Elevin Year Old??
Not at all. That's the charm of baseball. The infield is the only regulated part of the game. After that it's all about the separate personality of each ball park. It's the only sport that has that aspect to it.no that would make it boring. Imagine Fenway without the green monster, the Astros stadium without their hill and pole, san fran without the water, baseball is amazing that they let the teams do that.
no that is one of the things that make baseball great.
No.
No point. What purpose would it serve?
Who'd pay for it?

NEVER!What are Chipper Jones vital statistics?
no because then there would be the same and then there would be no personalityWhy did the red sox wear green jerseys playing those damn yankees?
Absolutely not.The rulebook sets the minimum distances to the walls, but here is no maximum, The rulebook also sets the configuration of the infield. The field itself and the stadium within which it is found, must fit within the property that is available.
The variations are what make the game interesting. Cookie cutter stadia belong only in sports in which the rulebook limits the actual size of the field.
A baseball fan would be more than aware of all of the above.
What can the Cincinnati Reds do to fix their bullpen?
why the hell would you want to make such a major change to a game that's been played in fields of all different sizes for over a hundred years? that's beyond stupid man. and how would you expect fenway to expand their outfield or would you expect every team to take in their field to the size of the smallest (fenway). that's frickin stupid. that's why baseball is great. every field is different. some are indoors, some outdoors. some have grass cut high, some grass cut low, some have synthetic. it's all part of the game.More Questions & Answers...
