WILKES BASEBALL'S ARTILLERY PARK RECEIVES NEW FENCING

KINGSTON, PA – Artillery Park, home of the Wilkes University baseball team, received a large facelift this past spring as a new outfield fence system was installed prior to the 2014 season.

Permanent fencing was installed in left to left centerfield, while temporary, portable fencing was installed in center and right field. The padded, temporary fencing is forty-eight inches high, while the "big blue monster" in leftfield is thirty foot high by two hundred feet wide. A nine foot wide red stone warning track was also installed in left to left centerfield.

The field also has two sets of bullpens, an outdoor batting cage, large dugouts, and a press box that is situated directly behind home plate.
