More fake stuff
FieldTurf is currently being installed at Florence's Champion Window Field, replacing the old grass surface. The playing field apparently was settling unevenly and the Bermuda grass was unsuitable for the Northern Kentucky climate, so the change was made.
This means only Washington and Kalamazoo in the East Division will have all-grass fields. Florence, Traverse City and Lake Erie are turf and the Midwest Sliders will be play at Eastern Michigan University's Oestrike Stadium, which has an artifical turf inifled and grass outfield.
UPDATE: The photo was updated to show work as of May 7

Only a matter of time before WWT succumbs to field turf.
The Wild Things will never succumb to turf until somebody else pays for it. I don't think Baseball Scholarships has the money. Perhaps it will be part of the Obama stimilus money, but I can't see Franni forking over the money unless they raise the parking to $10.00 per game.
