Baseball is second only to golf in terms of the uniqueness in playability it can provide its athletes. Sadly, too many designers aren't capitalizing on opportunities to truly customize, showcase regionality, or respond to contextual constraints.

Proud partner alert: @Destinedtofish is currently in second at the 2021 @GuaranteedRate @bassmaster Elite — looking to chase down the leader with a strong Day 3 on Lake Champlain.
Here’s to hoping our @DuraEdge friend has himself a 23lb. day.

It’s so hard to cram 4 weeks into 1 minute and the fact that we did all this in just 4 weeks blows my mind. I’ll say it a million times, @Nathanc47010798 @lasergraderUt are absolutely incredible and with the help of @4MostSport and @DuraEdge we’re ready for the 2021 season!
We're excited to announce our SightLine Field Evaluation Program, aimed to assist MiLB in meeting new field construction guidelines.
This program is made possible through the recent curation of our Advisory Panel, bringing 150+ years of experience.

I’ve been pursing this project since last July and am so excited to see it unfold. Huge shoutout to @Nathanc47010798 @DuraEdge@lasergraderUt@4MostSport@luke_yoder@grantcmcknight for the HUGE helping hand in getting a major league quality field to Reno
I have no bias whatsoever to natural vs synthetic debate; there's places for both in the right situation. This makes me think of an old axiom though:
"A synthetic field looks/plays best the 1st game of the 1st season. A grass field looks/plays best the 1st game of every season."
@Gawbage29@AndyOmmen1 Bingo. Can’t get John & Sally Smith to write a $50,000 check for an [invisible] “Memorial Soil Profile.” It’s not sexy, and let’s be real; benefactors *are* selfless people, but they secretly love to see their names on that plaque. It’s human nature. Use that for Phase II items.
Good to see youth #ballfields full and facing the proper direction. Hitting a baseball is one of the toughest things to do on this planet. There’s no need to make it any tougher for the 10 year olds that want to quit after every strikeout.
Remember: Make your fans crane their neck to see those 2.6 home runs per game, not the 292 total pitches thrown. Even tougher to turn your head when it’s printed in 2D. No wonder few want to stay in their seats (or attend games) the recent years before this mess.
I’d never say “thanks Covid” but these cardboard fans are bringing to light some major shortcomings in ballpark architecture. The action is happening in the 60’-6” between home and the pitcher and these seats (ranging from $35-$100) are facing centerfield. Now is time for change.
Big thanks to Saegertown Boro and Little League for making this project happen. We essentially got to redo the field from infield mix to sod to warning track. It was a fun project to be a part of.
Didn’t mean to leave you on the edge of the cliff this long.
Here’s Part II, concluding #TheCloverleafChronicles episode on Foul Ball Distribution. If you need to catch up, the entire series is embedded in our homepage — or subscribe to our YT channel.

You need a little Tuesday video break.
Episode 2 of #TheCloverleafChronicles, but it’s Part I of this foul ball topic. Hopefully that doesn’t confuse. Never intended to do the dramatic cliffhanging two-parter this early in the series, but here we are.
