Myers Park vs TC Roberson (Postponed)

yes it was a very good game today. and Roberson can hit the ball very very well. but having a short field also helps them tremendously with the home runs. no one can deny that.

I don't have a dog in this fight

but is the field the same size for both teams when they are playing at TCR? So if TCR hits a HR in the small park do they move the fence back when the other team gets up?

I have never understood this argument. I can see where people could say that a teams HR count could be skewed by playing half their games in a small park. But how that gives them an advantage when the other team is hitting in the same park I have no idea.
