San Francisco Giants pitcher Jeff Samardzija is a bit radical when it comes to ballpark dimensions.
In fact, he joked that if it were up to him, the fencing at ballparks would change at various points of the season just to keep things interesting, or so he said at Saturday’s fanfest event.
Jeff Samardzija on moving the fences in: “I like weird ballparks … I think the should change it back and forth during the season. Move the fences in, move them out … it’s not going to tear up the field worse than Jason Aldean playing some terrible concert.”

On one hand, this will never happen. On the other hand, it would be hilarious, though most pitchers in particular would probably be less enamored with this than Samardzija is.
The Giants pitcher is known to have a pretty good sense of humor. We’d love to hear some of his other cutting-edge ideas to make baseball more entertaining.
