One of my biggest qualms with TD is the size of the field.  In every other ballpark (college), that triple is a homer.  This is college ball.  Idk... just seems too big.

 

Anyways... back to the game.  Gelo with a solid triple that got things going.  Waldron looks awesome through 1.

 

Love TD Ameritrade.  IMO it might be the perfect ballpark.  It's just a shame it only gets used basically two weeks out of each year, for the Big Ten tournament and the CWS.

Be better if it wasn’t built backwards.  

 

Fair point but there are a number of really good MLB parks that face the same direction.

Duncan field in Hastings is as big as TDA. it's 375 to left, 405 in the power alleys, 408 to dead center, and 367 to right, Hastings college plays there as does a wood bat league for college kids and those guys don't have a problem getting balls out of the park.

So what?  Was a dumb decision to build a park with the same dimensions as Rosenblatt without the prevailing winds aiding ballflight.

No it wasn't.

Illinois almost out of inning after Michigan appeared to bounce into a bases loaded double play.  The call was overturned.  A run scored, and the next batter doubles in two runs to tie the game at 3 going to the 8th inning.
