Just curious why are the fences going to be 225, I believe most colleges are 190 to 210....I would think very few girls will be able to hit one out 225..

20ROOK Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 What's that mean? So does college players not hit em? I am fine with just wondering what made them choose 225I'll explain. Back in the old days when we rolled in to a field and the fences were far or the wind was blowing in 40 mph, thats what we would say referring to hitting a homerun. As we entered Shelby County's field last year, my daughter looked at their long fences and said I doubt I can hit one outta here. I said you gotta hit em to get em, and she new what it meant. Yes 200 ft would have been better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So why the thought process of not wanting games decided by HR's? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
