In shortThe Jaypro BBSBFP-15 is a collegiate level 15 ft. foul pole for baseball and softball fields, built as a one piece heavy duty steel post with an expanded metal wing panel finished in yellow. It can be set permanently in concrete or installed semi-permanently in an optional ground sleeve. The height suits high school and college outfield fences.

One piece construction means there are no field splices to align or bolt together, so the pole goes up straight and stays that way. The heavy duty steel main post carries the wing panel, which is expanded steel mesh rather than sheet, allowing wind to pass through and reducing load on the post and footing.
The yellow powder coated topcoat over a galvanized under coat keeps the pole highly visible against the sky and protects it from rust in wet and coastal environments. Repainting on a schedule is not needed the way it is with a field painted pole.
For correct officiating the pole is installed with its outside face flush with the outside of the foul line and the wing panel aligned with the outfield fence. Choose a permanent concrete set, or use the optional ground sleeve so the pole can be pulled for fence work, mowing access or winter storage. Footing dimensions on the drawing are suggestions for average soil conditions; check local building codes before pouring.
