[quote=Anonymous]Here's the issue I have with the fence: the bodies that govern youth baseball have been pushing to require fields to have an outfield fence. And it has nothing to do with how the game is played. Youth baseball is declining in popularity. But DC is like most places in the US that for historical reasons baseball has an outsized access to fields -- public fields. When those fields have fences across the outfield, they can't be used for other sports. Youth baseball is pushing the fences as a way of cutting off competition from other sports. The DC government should be calling bullshit on this, but instead they enable it. [/quote]
