Anyone know where things stand on the baseball facility upgrades - club house and stadium?
It's frustrating to see our baseball team play games at Young Memorial Field. Especially with the upgrades already made to the softball, soccer and football practice facilities that you see while at the baseball games. I was not a regular fan this season due to many family duties and my work schedule. But I did attend a game in the last home series against FAU on Friday.. I left the game just thinking about our peogram and just don't understand playing at Young Memorial . The field was nice other than the visitor bullpen down the right field line. The men's bathroom sink was leaking big time and the entire bathroom was flooded.
I just don't understand why you play at YM when Regions Park is only several blocks away? Other schools share facilities with minor league clubs and it seems to work fairly well. I know Samford plays The Citadel at a minor league facility in Charleston that has also hosted SoCon Conference tournament games in years past. But something needs to be done right away.. It makes no sense to me fo play even one more season or any games at YM until upgrades are made.
Because the Barons said we can't.
