More net

I forgot to note something in my earlier post. UT has extended the protective netting between home plate and the crowd. It used to curve around the backstop area and stop at the "inner" edges of the dugouts (the edges closest to home plate). Now, it extends to the "outer" edges of both dugouts. I'm sure that'll make things a lot safer for the crowd. But it cuts down on the net-free photo-taking angles quite a bit. It also means fewer foul balls will be going home as souvenirs.
