- South Mercer Playfield #2 - homeruns hit over the second fence into a backyard is an out and disqualifies the player. (this is the one bkbjones mentioned)
- Rainier Playfield, NW field - down the left field line about 250 feet is an asphalt path. Balls hit to or over the path are a 2-base award.

Got any of your own?
2 Rec league parks.

Fence is so short on one field, only 1 HR allowed per team per game....make sure it's a salami!

Another one, RF fence has a steep angle towards center similar to Fenway. (~200' down the line and ~400' straightaway center. Over the fence is a HR anywhere except from the RF foul pole to the extra "GR double pole" in right center.
