Resurfacing and widening the warning track is off to a great start.

[WhitecapsGroundsCrew @WhitecapsGCrew]

Spent the last week and a half resoding our wear areas after baseball, football and soccer. Mound and replacing the warning track is next!

@ellenbacca Best guess when it reaches Comstock Park & fifth third ballpark?

[WhitecapsGroundsCrew @WhitecapsGCrew]

One of those things that makes you laugh. Has this happened to anyone else? I feel we've all done it. #postconcert

@bghotrodsground the players on off days coach 1st for us this season. Coaches box is very worn.

[WhitecapsGroundsCrew @WhitecapsGCrew]

Have to go back to the beginning of April but today we broke the "more tarp pulls than games mark".... Again. 66 pulls 65 games.

[WhitecapsGroundsCrew @WhitecapsGCrew]

Sitting at 60 pulls with 6 reg. season games left. Circle and star represents 2in in 40 min pop up 5min into game.

[WhitecapsGroundsCrew @WhitecapsGCrew]

6 regular season @wmwhitecaps home games remaining after today.

[WhitecapsGroundsCrew @WhitecapsGCrew]

2hrs to game time we were still drying from 9inn of constant rain and 3 tarp pulls during the day. Played perfect.

[WhitecapsGroundsCrew @WhitecapsGCrew]

Finished a restarted 11 inning game starting at 6pm and we are currently in the top of the 12th of the second game. Cool.

[WhitecapsGroundsCrew @WhitecapsGCrew]

Spent today aerating OF position areas, foul lines and tarp dump areas. Gearing up for final 10 games and concert.

[West Michigan Whitecaps @wmwhitecaps]

Still time to get to @FifthThirdBPark for some baseball tonight! #wcaps

Props to Danny Duffy for giving credit to the grounds crew about their mound. He's ok in my book.
