It’s part of the beauty of the game just like golf courses have different layouts and formula one has different tracks.
Why criticize one of the few good things baseball has to offer?

Im not criticizing. It just always seemed odd. You can make a very unique structure of a stadium and still have the same dimensions on the actual field and fences. Look at the differences in all of our football stadiums and basketball arenas.

Soccer fields are the same way. Wembley is larger than most pitches.
The old Dallas Cowboy stadium was ridiculous
You almost couldn’t see the players on the other side line
(Exaggerating a bit)

Asking a question is not criticism
If you want real criticism about baseball
Here’s it…..
Why is it ok to have a strike zone that is constantly changing from game to game
and even during the same game?
It would be like in the second half of a football game
They changed the size of the field
Or endzones

Because the BaseVols need a short porch to pad stats

Don't know if you meant this as a joke, but obviously LN is longer at 320 feet. Lots can be constrained by buildings, streets, etc. In our case, right field is constrained by a a street and a railroad track.
Yeah it was a joke. Some of these other programs should move their fences in so they can win a natty too, it makes the game so much easier.
