Clements High School Frankie Field in Sugar land gets new fence


Sugar Land, TX — November 23, 2011 — Officially named Johnnie Frankie Baseball Field at its dedication on September 10, 1978, the home of the Clements Rangers Baseball team recently underwent cosmetic surgery to remove the unsightly 18-foot tall chain link outfield fence and replace with a more up-to-date wooden outfield fence.
According to Clements baseball Coach De Los Santos and booster representative Pete Mayock, the decision to replace was both aesthetic and monetary, as the old chain link fence with torn windscreen was an eyesore as well as difficult and expensive to maintain. The booster club financed the removal of the old fence and the installation of the new fence. Local business Republic Fence Company, owned and operated by Clements Alumnus Troy Matthys, was awarded the construction project.

The 18' tall outfield chain link was removed and alterations were made to the steel support poles to accommodate a new 8-foot tall wooden fence that rises to 16-feet at center field. The fence will ultimately be painted “Clements Blue” to match the dugouts.

Republic Fence Company has operated in Fort Bend County providing residential and commercial fences in houston areas since 2007.

  1. There are wealthy gentlemen in England who drive four-horse passenger-coaches twenty or thirty miles on a daily line, in the summer, because the privilege costs them considerable money; but if they were offered wages for the service, that would turn it into work and then they would resign.link fence
