Opening weekend 2026⚾️⚾️

[Bats Grounds Crew @bats_grass]

Another opening day down. A little chilly but all smiles from Tod.

[Bats Grounds Crew @bats_grass]

Enjoying the off weekend with some of the fellas by running in the bats 5k!

[Brock Hammond @BrockHammond02]

Good first day of plate clay switch over.

@TIMMMAY8 Hate to see it, we know the feeling when it seems like you can’t catch a break. Keep pushing forward

[Wes @ganobleberries]

Last but not least, it was wonderful to visit with @batsgrass @ShaferTod and his staff in Louisville. What a great group of young men who asked so many great industry focused questions. Truly a blessing to have a crew like that, and always wonderful to see Tod.

@stevenkienle Finally got some new ones after all this time

[Bats Grounds Crew @bats_grass]

The projects continued today with an aggressive edge and backfill on the infield.

Also spent time raising/adjusting some irrigation heads, and hand watering as the days without rain keep piling on.

Feat. Robocop taking care of the mowing while we tended to other tasks.

@matth97939495 Yep it is

[Bats Grounds Crew @bats_grass]

@matth97939495 Tip from another groundskeeper, we gave it a try and we liked how it worked so we stayed with it

[Bats Grounds Crew @bats_grass]

More from the last couple of days here at Slugger:

-Topdressed with sand and Mirimichi Green soil enhancer.
-Resodded umpire horns, and front of mound.

@mjgrewe2 Sorry for such a late response, when it starts to heat up we will verticut 2-3x a month.

[Bats Grounds Crew @bats_grass]

With the team on the road for two weeks, it means time to really get after it.

Double verticut, cores pulled and swept to start off the break.

[Bats Grounds Crew @bats_grass]

Absolutely incredible. The guys kill it every year!

[Charles Schwab Field Omaha @CharlesSchwabFO]

The @cws_groundscrew has done it again! 🏆

@maier_cj We own a Toro Procore and use it regularly, but due to the age of our soil base, we started renting the Air2G2 1-2x per year to better relieve compaction and improve drainage in some problem areas.

[Bats Grounds Crew @bats_grass]

Giving the field a breath of fresh air after the two week homestand. Cross tine aeration to follow in high traffic areas.

[Bats Grounds Crew @bats_grass]

Few hours before game 9 of 12 in 13 days. Pretty satisfied with how we are holding up; especially considering 5 days of tarp pulls last week.

[Bats Grounds Crew @bats_grass]

@cwalsh0014 Our thoughts exactly haha

[Bats Grounds Crew @bats_grass]

@TIMMMAY8 100% agree.
