There are five fields - the four division fields and Einstein in Reliant Park. Keep in mind that this is a football stadium and the fields will be set up on the football field (They can remove the grass for occasions like this).
They will be set up as follows: the four division fields will be at the four corners of the stadium facing the 50 yard line seats (don't know why they do not just face the corners - maybe so you can watch two or three fields at once if you are high up on the 50 yard line). Einstein is on the 50 yard line between Curie and Galileo and facing in the same direction (straight at the 50 yard line seats). Archimedes and Newton face the opposite way at the other 50 yard line.
The pits are set up on the baseball field in the Astrodome. Archimedes and Galileo are closest to the entrance/exit, while Curie and Newton are farthest. There is a practice "area" to be set up in the pits area (it looks like there will only be one - ouch). I'm not sure if there will be a ramp or just carpet.
