Hi,
I am looking for the groundrules for the new Park of the Houston Astros. Can anybody help me? We have a stadium here in Germany where there is a pole in the outfield as well. So we try to get a ruling for that. Thanx Raoul

some purpose/function. Trying to visualize this, all I can see is this tall pole just standing in the outfield with a sign saying "Hit this pole and win a new car of your choice." Just funning.  glen
