Guest Anglesault Report post Posted July 13, 2004 Can someone explain what purpose that hill serves? It seems to be there specifically to tear up a knee. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bruiser Chong 0 Report post Posted July 13, 2004 The hill was apparently supposed to be a homefield advantage, despite the Astros centerfielders not being able to adjust to it, either. As for this thing, I think Sosa or an underdog is gonna take it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Choken One Report post Posted July 13, 2004 Supposedly it's old school retro but i don't recall any ballpark having them. Junior would have gotten injured playing the hill anyways...at least he went ahead and did his injury thing so Beltran could get his rightful spot. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KingPK 0 Report post Posted July 13, 2004 I think Fenway had one in the pre-Monster days. It was called "Duffy's Cliff" after a fielder who played it well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

EVIL~! alkeiper 0 Report post Posted July 13, 2004 The flagpole is inspired by the flagpole at Sportman's Park in St. Louis. I think Fenway had one in the pre-Monster days. It was called "Duffy's Cliff" after a fielder who played it well. It actually sloped downward, I believe. I'd have to double-check on that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Anglesault Report post Posted July 13, 2004 Berman and Bonds on commentary? Thank God for mute. well...He's just giving McCovey a bj. I didn't understand a God damn word he said. He's really excited or hopped up on something because he was talking a mile a minute. And you really should be able to pick and choose with "Retro" ideas. Random hill in center field is in the "bad" category Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
