![]() The railing is fine, it's the umpires that need to be fixed.

![]() That's not the railings fault, why would we fix that? The umps just need to be properly trained on what's a home run in our park

![]() Here's how you fix the problem. Change the railing with a touch activated screen that when a ball hits the screen, The screen will turn on and display HOMERUN, also on the PA system, a recording of Ray Tanner will say HOMERUN. It will only be turned on when USC is at bat :)

![]() Anyone remember that rail saving our bacon against MSU last year? Ump missed the call, kept the ball in play, so a should have been 3 run HR turned into a 2 run double. We won 8-7

I also remember the last game of the 2010 regular season (our lone win of the series against Florida) where I was standing next to the rail in right field when we hit the ball off the rail but did not get the home run call. The umpires should call it better, but they have consistently not gotten it right. That should be a point of emphasis in the pregame meeting at home plate by Holbrook this year. |

![]() As fans, if you have a railing seat, just bring a big roll of paper that goes on the table at the doctors office. Tape it to the front of the railing so that it will easily show marks when hit.
