Starting this account to show the process of rejuvenating the baseball facilities at Park Sharon. Once these field were in tip top shape, but they’ve fallen on hard times recently. Our goal is to make them a place kids are proud to play ball.

After 25 solid years, line painting at Frank Kush Field will never be the same.
Many thanks to our friends over at @RamPavement for sending up a drone and getting some great shots for us. From that height it’s easy to overlook the flaws.

First football paint of the season. Bare bones for the middle school games. 30 mins of painting, 2.5 gallons of white. 6 weeks to go!

Practices are starting back up at the park. Looks like I found the sunscreen application area on Field 1

Please don’t share this. We have too many 13yo outfielders digging holes in our turf as it is. Imagine if they knew big leaguers did it, too.
OF mark (RF) that is in line with second base. OF’s are constantly checking their spot and adjusting to their scouting report card. Conveniently these are usually right on a mow line.

I always say you can tell a lot about a coach by the way he folds a tarp. Even more by how he leaves the field after practice.
Aerified and topdressed 3 weeks ago then went on vacation. Spent the last week catching back up. Hosting a 2-day event this weekend so we had to get it tight.
I know that once I was a young ballplayer with no knowledge of turf care, but I swear it never crossed my mind to take my BP hacks in front of the home plate cutout. Is it just being too lazy to peel back the tarp?
Can we add an indicator to the score bug that identifies which type of turfgrass the game is being played on?

Back at the park today for the first time in 10 days. Trying to catch up on some mowing this week. The Bermuda has really taken off!
Someone is totally losing their pesticide applicator’s license! #CSIturfgrass
Whoever did it should be identified and prosecuted. Between security cameras, witnesses, and cell phone location data, finding the culprits shouldn’t be that hard. The modern left seems far better at destroying things than building them.
