FAQs

At least I think they should be.

Cycle alerts

Yellow alert - Player needs triple for cycle
Orange alert - Player needs double for cycle
Red alert - Player need single for cycle

If a player needs a home run for the cycle, the level of the alert varies depending upon the determination of the Cycle Detection Warning System, which is headquartered in Thief River Falls, Minnesota.

Beach balls and the cotton candy guy, my two enemies at baseball games.

2 I can't relate. I only had 85000 thousand people show up to my last game. It was only a qualifying game though, maybe next week we will break the 100000 mark.

Is there a limit to how much foul territory is in play on the third-base side?

If there were, we never found out, I don't believe there were any foul balls hit off third that stayed in play that were in the air. There was a foul out down the first base line.

The cotton candy is blocking the view where the Red Sox on deck circle was. The Dodger on deck circle was on the first base side in the triangle between the end of the dugout and one of the supporting poles for the backstop.

Despite there being little distance between the catcher and home, there was still one wild pitch in the game.
