A local school has their bullpen located about 20 yards behind the back stop. they use to have bleachers positioned right behind the backstop where you could not see the bullpen from the field. It was brought up numerous times in the past with some umpires not allowing teams to warm up there As the area behind first has copse's behind it with a gully behind that and third base has school buildings behind it. They use a lot of game balls every year. Last season the school moved the bleachers apart towards each dugout about 10 feet so the bullpen is visible from the field and within the confines of the field.
