ARLINGTON, Texas -- The dimensions at the new Texas Rangers' ballpark will be similar to their old stadium, with slightly altered distances designed to honor the team's retired jersey numbers.
The left field pole will be 329 feet from home plate -- a nod to former third baseman Adrian Beltre's No. 29 jersey. It will be 407 feet to straightaway center field, honoring Hall of Fame catcher Ivan "Pudge" Rodriguez (No. 7), and 410 at the deepest points to recognize Michael Young (No. 10).
Former manager Johnny Oates' No. 26 will be marked by the 326 feet to the right field pole at Globe Life Field.
