Stadium dimensions

I'm building some custom stadiums and have a question. I've used the OOTP Park Generator for some help.

How far from the lines does OOTP consider "Field" and "Center"? In other words, is there a specific defined point for "Left Field", "Left Center", "Right Field" and "Right Center"?

I'm trying to build some stadiums using basic geometry, and can determine the distances from home plate to any specific point on the wall, but I'm not sure how to determine which points I should use for the four above distances.

Does that make sense?

I can't speak for OOTP, but the Park Genererator takes it in 15-degree increments with the left-field line as the 0-degree marker. That's pretty obvious if you look at the output, of course.
