The netting on the outfield fence that protects adjacent fields from errant fly balls was cut into pieces this week.
According to Lincoln City Park and Recreation staff on scene, “The net had been sagging throughout the winter due to heavy rains and because the field was still wet we couldn’t bring out the necessary equipment to tighten the cables. Then, sometime this week we discovered that someone had entered the field and sliced up the netting.”
Staff indicated that the netting was damaged beyond repair and a new one was being ordered. Estimated cost will be in excess of two thousand dollars
I call bs, you couldn’t use scaffolding or bring in a lift per the gravel? Or better yet take it down after the season. Then without proof blame vandalism on the damage not weather.
