    The minimum distance to hit a home run (along either foul line) is set by baseball rules, generally at 325 feet (99 m). [14] Before 1931 (with the exception of a couple months in 1920) [15] [unreliable source?] the foul lines extended indefinitely; a batter was awarded a home run only if a fly ball out of the field was fair where it landed.

    The "circle" or "fielding circle" is an oval described by drawing a semicircle of 30 yards (27 m) radius from the centre of each wicket with respect to the breadth of the pitch and joining them with lines parallel, 30 yards (27 m) to the length of the pitch. This divides the field into an infield and outfield and can be marked by a painted line ...

    as one would expect. This is equivalent to the above definition of the 2D mean diameter. However, for historical reasons, the hydraulic radius is defined as the cross-sectional area of a pipe A, divided by its wetted perimeter P, which leads to =, and the hydraulic radius is half of the 2D mean radius.
