Would someone please post pics of the outside of the stadium?  That would be great.

And once again those pics were taken earlier in the day then when the Bulls games start @ 7pm.

Looking at that shadow from the picture it's at least 5pm, if not later.

BTW, they took down the outer construction fence, so you should have a good view of the field now (didn't take pic since it was dark).

LOL. I guess we will see on next Fri. I am sure there will be a few pictures taken on the first pitch and we'll see where the shadow ends. There is no question there will be a shadow but I think the shadow will extend well past the pitcher's mound by first pitch.

Either way, advantage goes to the Bulls if there is a shadow issue from mound to home plate as we will see it every game and the opponent won't.

Go Bulls!

It won't be an issue early on, but after March 13 it might be.

Agree that the shadows should impact the infield/outfield more, but it could come into play if there is abad hop between the sun and shade.

it won't be an issue, TV makes it out to be worse than it is.

You want bad... Bend, OR had a baseball field where the sun set in left center field...  When I was there it was home to the Rockies farm club.

You can see the weak ass net they try to put up as a sun break!

Tim Salmon (left handed), a first round stud, took a pitch right in the cheek and never got out of the way, didn't see it in setting sun.  Only place I had ever seen it.

Can't edit - I assume they will have a batter's eye installed sometime soon?

I was just informed by my source at the Athletic dept that everything is still on schedule for the home openers on the 24/25th.

I assure those workers are going to be working their asses off until then.
