On the first day of Summer Camp, Giants outfielder Mike Yastrzemski learned something about the new fences at Oracle Park. Yastrzemski ran into the wall in center while playing defense.
"It stays up," he said, smiling.
The new bullpens are, indeed, very well built. They drew rave reviews from pitchers and members of the staff, enough to make you wonder why the Giants didn't make this change a decade ago. The visiting bullpen, in particular, figures to be a fun addition for fans, with a large deck surrounding it on two sides for anyone who would like to heckle Kenley Jansen before a future ninth inning.
