MTH posted:Long overdue. As I recall they used to use the old field for parking for football games. Most of the fans that attended games, and I don't think there were many, watched from the parking garage behind the field. Radio crews for visiting teams set up in the parking garage. When son's team played there in 09 or 10 he and a catcher were sent to the bullpen when the starter began to struggle. Bullpen was beyond the outfield fence. Unfortunately, the gate was locked. He and teammate had to climb the fence. Just as he began to get loose, head coach headed to the mound to yank the starter. Fortunately, when the HC signaled for him to come in, someone had unlocked the gate so he did not have to climb the fence a second time.
I think one year TPM’s son pitched for Clemson the visiting bullpen was partially under the parking lot. ACC teams complained. It was moved to the outfield.
