Google Maps and Danny’s Mound

Google announced the addition of satellite maps to their beta mapping site: maps.google.com. You can now zoom in and out and drag a photo map just like you can a drawn map. In this snapshot, the arrow points to the mound where Danny pitches at Brookwood. Click on this to see the theoretical flight path of a ball hit slightly left of center. Such a ball could actually knock out the window of Danny’s bedroom, which apparently directly faces the field.
