o Field Checklist:
Pre-Game prep
- Use sponges to soak up any standing water on the home plate and pitcher's mound tarps
- Roll up and remove tarps using wheelbarrows. Do not drag the tarps
- Hand drag infield skins as needed, do not push material up to the grass line.
- From the equipment shed bring out: Bases, Batters Box Template, String, 2 Landscape Pins, Mallet, Chalking Machine
- Use batters box template to mark the right and left hand batters box
- Run a string line from outfield grass, down the outside edge of 1st/3rd base, and over the diagonal edge of home plate to mark the foul line
- Chalk to the inside of the string line. The foul line should run directly under the base, not next to it.
- Remove 1st and 3rd base from their plates.
- Use a light dusting (do not go back and forth over the line 1x is enough)
- The foul line does not meet the outside corner of the batter's box. It will intersect close to the middle
