The Baltimore Orioles announced Wednesday that extended netting is coming to Camden Yards and Ed Smith Stadium.
The Orioles are one of the few teams in baseball that wasn't yet in line with Major League Baseball's recommendation that netting stretch from dugout to dugout. The new netting at Camden Yards is expected to stretch from Section 16 to Section 58, three sections past each dugout.
