They spent time researching whether to replace the missing areas with the same type of wooden fence or replace the entire fence with an alternative material such as recycled composite plastic. A masonary wall with padding would be the best option but would be very costly and couldn't be done till after the season even if they could find the money. The fence repair which I am guessing will be filling in the openings with wood should start soon and they may be waiting for the softball lighting project to wrap up. The scheduled home opener is only five weeks away.
Spent so much time on that, they forgot to make sure the lights work. J.O.K.E.
