Now you know.

The man, who up until last year was in charge of the scoreboard and selecting and recording crowd shots, Scott Fearncombe, said Wednesday any such reports “were never brought to my attention, and I don’t know of any secret stash of videos.”

Up-skirt shots would have been technically difficult from the dugout-level cameras, he said, “because of the way people are sitting and the angle of the cameras.”

Videographers running those two cameras and two in the upper deck fed constant streams of crowd shots to Fearncombe’s monitors as he was operating Comerica Park’s scoreboard, the largest in baseball when the park opened in 2000. Recording any of the feeds to DVD was a matter only of hitting a few buttons, Fearncombe said, but nothing inappropriate was recorded to his knowledge.
