Back to the RFK foul poles. I posted earlier, either here or on another board, that the LF pole is lined up on the fair edge of the foul line as opposed to directly over the line. Last night, the Braves broadcast showed the RF foul pole. It is lined up on the foul edge of the line, off exactly the same amount as the LF pole. It appears they measured the distances, erected the poles, and oops, when they drew the field the poles are off by 3 inches. Maybe the line on the fence is off, but I don't think so because that would be easy to fix. It is much more difficult to move a Major League foul pole if you mess it up.
