very similar to the ole Baggy at the dome back in the day! ah how i miss the days of teflon-covered baseball games where no one could seemingly beat us when we were good thanks to the noise and sea of gray above for balls to be lost by fielders.
In case you were wondering about Wisconsin, they used to have baseball but don’t anymore. It was discontinued after 1991. They played at Guy Lowman field, which was removed and replaced with the Goodman softball complex. I don’t know the exact dimensions, but the field looked rounded at the back of the outfield. An image of the field is attached.
That’s a cool picture. I got to Wisconsin in the fall of 1991 just after they discontinued the program and never saw the field. Thanks for sharing that.
FYI for Minnesota: US Bank Stadium is the Vikings' football stadium where Minnesota plays early season games. By late March, they switch and play at their on-campus home park, Siebert Field.
They’ve played games in the snow before. But yeah like the other comment said they’ll play down south a lot in February and March for Non-Conference games
Just wait til everyone sees the new dimensions of USC’s new field. The renderings I’ve seen is 315 down the lines. 390 to center. Hitters dream and a pitchers nightmare
Lord, Minnesota is a lefties dream park. Down the line, straight right and even the right center gap are shorter than a lot of high school fields. I know where my son is signing now. 😂
This is why baseball is a joke of a sport, imagine if ever football field had different lengths of playable field or if the up rights were wider or more narrow
Haymarket, I love you babe.
I would dream to be a lefty in Minnesota
I just looked up the field right now and it seems it's outdated. It's 318 down that line then shoots out further immediately now
The figure is showing the dome in Minneapolis, not their on campus field.
Minnesota only plays about 10 games per year at US Bank Stadium and then about 20 games at Siebert Field (on-campus) once the weather is better
they do have a line on the wall they have to hit it over for a homer, for context
I had no idea they played in the Vikings stadium. I still want to be a lefty there LOL
They only play early season games there. Later in March they move to their on-campus stadium, Siebert Field.
Correction: the line is for high schools that play there in the winter as well. Any collegiate homer has to clear the wall.

The Sportsmans Park set up
Not shown: That weird ass hump out in right field at MSU.
The weirder a baseball field is, the more cool it is

Not being a smart ass but I didn’t think Penn State had baseball. That must be rough in February and March!
A lot of Northern schools find warm climates to play in early in the year. Most don't have home games until March
The exception would be the 4 west coast schools, for obvious reasons.

Excluding USC and UCLA the last B1G national championship was Ohio st in '66?
Michigan was damned close in 2019
Oppo taco nation over in Minnesota

When the video started with USC and Oregon, I got excited for the Pac-12 :(
Go Beavs! FTD and BiG10 baseball.
When the ACC's turn comes around... Will Clemson have a warning track in their field? 🤔
Has the dimensions of the Maryland ballpark changed since McDougall had a 6-hr field day there?
Duane Banks is far from the best stadium in the conference, but I have so many amazing memories there.
I love that most of them have a little personality to it
Why doesn't Wisconsin have a baseball team?
You guys missed Wisconsin…oh wait

Big10 plays baseball?
Why is Maryland on 365 to center? That’s high school dimensions

A question I asked myself every home game after deciding to pitch there lmao
I’ve never been to any of those fields but I doubt they all have identical base path styles. Or foul territories.
The big ten has baseball?

Guy came to a baseball subreddit to complain about baseball doing baseball shit
I didn’t come here by choice, Reddit pushed it to my feed
Did they also force you to comment?
Character. Imagine if every golf course was set up like the local municipal course.
