07/29/2004: Ground rules, revisited....
Back in the earliest days of the Greymatter incarnation of this blog, I mentioned a Rob Neyer column talking about ground rules in baseball (no link because those bastards at ESPN.com made Rob's work "premium" stuff, which means you have to pay for it now). Say "ground rule double" to your average American, and of course they think of a long fly ball bouncing over the outfield fence. That's not really a ground rule, because that's standard in every ballpark in the country. Real ground rules are intended to cover situations that are unique to a particular ballpark, like, e.g., what happens when a ball gets stuck in the ivy in Wrigley Field?
While trolling the Major League Baseball website I stumbled across this page, a complete compendium of ground rules for all MLB ballparks.
Go give it a gander to get a feel for what real ground rules are all about.
Extra bonus content: scroll down to the bottom of the page to find the "guidelines" for opening/closing the roof at those ballparks that have retractable roofs. Apparently, "they" just can't open and close the roof at their discretion....
