Like seriously? You have home plate facing directly North and CF directly South? Come on, Tennessee, this is just weird.

Here's a view via Google Earth of the stadium. The image is oriented directly North.

So that northerly wind from feb through apr can help hitters? Maybe. Prob just bc of space though.

As an aside, you just graduate? Congrats if so.
