Have ever read a report about a herd of cows getting electrocuted? If you have, weren't they huddled under a tree? Ever read one where the cow was in the middle of a pasture?
I can see sending the kids to their cars or to a large building. The practice I object to is that of sending them to the dugout.
On the field I was describing, except for the center fielder, the players are all seem closer to the bottom of the nearest light pole than the top of the light pole is to the bottom (while probably a safe distance away), while on the field. It is my assertion that the kids are safer in the field than near the backstop/light poles.
