The errata between baseball diamonds fascinates me. My dad used to tell stories of Clark Field[1] at University of Texas that had a cliff and a goat path in the outfield. That gave the Longhorns a massive home field advantage, and it amazes me that other teams were willing to play road games there. I can’t imagine a football team above Pop Warner playing games on a field that has a pronounced slope or end zones that aren’t a full 10 yards deep, but baseball seems to embrace the differences in diamonds.
