Hi everyone,

I am currently plotting, measuring, and visualizing every single high school baseball field in the United States. I currently have all of the data for Alaska, Ohio, Utah, Hawaii, and West Virginia (currently working on Maine). This is my second iteration of this type of graphic. Ohio's version is done but needs to be reformatted. Here are the other works of mine showcasing the weirdest fields of the states I listed previously:

• Ohio part 1
• Ohio part 2
• Ohio part 3
• Utah
• Hawaii
• Alaska will not have a weirdest field version as all of them are relatively normal.

And here is the link to the other overlay graphic I made:

• Hawaii Overlay

​

All of these can also be found on my Twitter. Enjoy everyone :)

You've really gotta earn that Homer in Homer.

These really highlight the uniqueness of baseball.

Imagine a football field with squiggly sidelines or 89 yard fields instead of 100.

Or a basketball court where the 3 pt line was significantly further back.

Entire seasons/champions could be different.

…are there no regulations to baseball diamonds? Homer can just make its own random polygon like that?

Yes, the infield has specific regulations (one base to the next has to be 90 ft, home plate to pitcher's mound has to be 60'6") but other than that, just about everything else is up to the creator

I wouldn't call this unique but rather disorganised.

I am doing a similar project with all the fields in my home state, Michigan. If you could make use of my Google map plots I'd be happy to share them

Yeah I’d love them!

Kmz/kml file?

I'm manipulating the data in Python so I could also just give you a CSV of the polygon coordinates if that would be better
