Professional and Semi-Professional baseball fields
need high-clay content infield mixes to form very firm playing surfaces.
The infield mix should contain high amounts of silt and clay, to retain moisture. It should contain a lower percentage of sand, which loosens the playing surface.
Proper grading and maintenance of a
field is a must. No infield mix will perform properly if it is built
incorrectly or maintained poorly. However, choosing the right mix for
your level of play allows your field to meet its performance
expectations.
