Fences or 1 would have been a hr.I only hit hrs by accident,I'm a line drive hitter and the fences are 15 feet high. .....can't tell you how many times a season I hit the fence without it going over

Our fences are anywhere from 280 in left to 310 in right center. The fence is 10 ft high, with golf-range-style nets above. The HR line is 25 feet up. I hit the fence due to line drive type stuff, but I've yet to put one over in 3 years. On open fields, those line drives are home runs.

Another good night either 4-5 or 5-5 depending how it was scored. the for sure hits were two singles,a triple,and a HR.
.....HR suprised the hell out of me because the fence is at 310 and 15 feet high.

A lot of big hitters have switched to the 26s. It's all about batspeed.

I would be in full dbag mode. Swinging for the fences, smacking broads asses, talking trash to my out of shape teamates. It would be gold.
