    Think I have narrowed down one thing though. The stadium area will be a hybrid system. The runners (what you walk on) will be pre-cast concrete. The risers (vertical between the runners) will be aluminum. This will give you the feel of concrete but with reduced weight because of the aluminum risers. Appears to be a nice system.

    Does anyone have any idea what they plan on doing with the boxes down 1st and 3rd base lines? Such as permanent seating or redoing the poles and chains between boxes....

    I haven't heard about any potential work on that area. With that said there was a substantial budget for furnishing, fixtures, and equipment (FF&E). Might be some money allocated in there.

    I hope they don't put permanent seats. I like being able to move the chairs depending on how many we have in the box. Also it is nice to be able to angle the chairs toward home plate. New and better quality chairs would be nice. Permanent seats would make it hard not to have a obstructed view.

    My guess is the new netting will extend further down the first/third base lines than it was in the past. My thinking would be like what was installed for softball with a support cable at the top of the net and poles well down the first/third base lines to act as support structures. Cabling from the top of the net back to the top of the grandstand would provide stability and shape.

    I think I did hear something about that. Would make sense because the last thing you want to do with a new stadium is install poles where they obstruct the view. There have also been at least three people that I've personally seen get medical attention because of foul balls at the Tigue that weren't protected by the netting.
