Does anyone on the net know what the original dimensions of Yankee 
Stadium were? I am particularly interested in the distances to 
left center and center field when the monuments were a part of
the outfield landscape. A friend of mine and I have a wager about
the distance to the furthest point, he claiming 511 feet and I
claiming it to be under 500 ft. (487 or 478 to the deepest point).
If someone has a reliable answer with the source so that we may 
reference it from a library, I would appreciate an E-mail response.
If you're guessing don't waste the time of the net, please, there
are some buffoons that get real upset.
