A little closer view.......

Now that the grass is gone, I had no idea how terrible it looked before.

Thanks for the pics Frenchie, can't wait to see it in person!

Given how great this is starting to look, I would really like to see this same thing duplicated on the other side for a complete lower bowl and concessions/restrooms on both ends. That would really look good.

Knowing the first game will test the capacity of the newly renovated stadium, makes me smile!

The construction process is not the problem. I would imagine that it is the design and approval process that would take the most time.

I wonder if consideration was ever given to putting up a double decked stadium with suites, press box and media between the decks, while leaving the grandstand seats in place along 1st & 3rd base lines. That would leave a lot of attractive behind home plate seats. TCU, I believe, has that kind of setup and it looks great. Would also seem to lower costs while adding about 2,000 seats and having a top facility. A lot of teams keep the grandstand seats similar to ours. Isn't 6,000 seats about where we want to end up?

---I would certainly think that plan is under consideration---If the bleachers are staying then they almost have to double deck!!!

This and a mirror visitors side upper deck to match the new home side we're about to get!

I can assure you it will be done on time. Lemoine will make sure of it.

Don't know if this means anything, but when I passed by on my way to take pictures of the football stadium construction, there were several men in suits standing in front of the baseball stadium in deep conversation looking around....just maybe they might have some thoughts about pushing up the baseball field renovation....maybe just wishful thinking on my part.

This is how bad internet rumors start.

[CajunRebel]

My source just told me they were Big XII officials.

Hilarious

It was probably just some business men taking a tour of the complex. But that shouldn't prevent a slew of new rumors.
