The foul poll should be sponsored by "Tonka."
I also hope the Tropicana "catwalks" don't come into play during the playoffs. What an absurd place to play baseball.

Rumor has it that in 2007 the Rays organization lowered the Trop's left field wall so that carl crawford could have the opportunity to steal home runs.
