Game is scheduled for 5pm tmro. But wonder if the field is playable I see a small note on the schedule saying the game is going to be played at Auburn High School. I believe Auburn High School has a turf infield and grass outfield to my knowledge. goholycross.com/sports/baseball/schedule

I think the outfield fence abuts a very busy street. Could be a good day for dent repair business.

www.telegram.com/story/news/local/south-west/2016/05/13/playing-fields-prove-profitable/29978889007/AUBURN — Along with giving town athletes some of the nicest fields in the area to play on, new fields at the high school and the Pappas recreational complex on Pakachoag Street are proving to be a financial plus for the the town. Since 2013, the town has taken in more than $100,000 in fees from organizations and colleges that have rented the fields. The new high school on Auburn Street opened 10 years ago, while the Pakachoag recreational complex, named after Drs. Arthur and Martha Pappas, was finished in May 2012. After the historically cold, snowy winter of 2014-2015, some college teams played their games at the high school's baseball diamond, which is made of artificial turf except for dirt base paths, the pitcher’s mound, home plate area and warning track. The high school’s football field and all-purpose field have also been rented out for soccer, lacrosse and rugby games, school officials said.

But you'll get the word out about HC doing so.🤣 It's a smart move and brings HC into a neighboring community. Maybe a few Auburnites will see a few innings and drive down Southbridge St. to watch a game at Fitton in April.

Much closer than Northborough, too.

Was the change back to Fitton done by HC to tease Mr.Foley?

That kid can flat out play. 1.032 OPS and .352 AVG on the season. Plus he's hitting the exact same against LHP and RHP--the perfectly platoon-neutral hitter.

Nice work from frosh pitcher Oliver Brown in the 8th and 9th innings - I’d love to know the story of his recruiting from anchorage AK

Awful call at the end of the game. HC guy I thought got a hit the umpire called it foul. Would have had 2 guys on 1 out. Anyone see if it was fair or foul?
