Was wondering what some would consider a "pitchers park" and "hitters park" within college baseball. For example, what would you consider the dimensions for each?

It's not just the measurement of the fences, but as important is how much foul territory there is.

It's also about which way the field is facing in comparison to where the wind naturally blows, our field is a good 330' down the line and I've hit balls that far but our field almost always has wind coming in from right field so as a lefty batter it's not a hitter's park for me and it's a pitcher's park to a flamethrower because not many batters in our league are lefties so oppo shots don't go anywhere.

There's a field we play on a lot that looks like a hitter's park because it's 305' down the lines and 310' to center but the ball doesn't carry, the wind always blows in and never out.


Perfection: An imaginary goal.

about 300 to the corners, 360 in center with a 10 foot fence
