Sept. 9, 2013 ShaneV Men's 55 393 posts | Desert Breeze Park Are the fields at Desert Breeze Park in Las Vegas all artificial? Looks like it on the satellite view, no brown patches, sprinkler circles. And if so, I bet it plays hot when it's in the 90's! ShaneV |
Sept. 9, 2013 FOFO Men's 60 284 posts | Yes Shane. Outfields are all artificial. Infields are dirt. I start league out there Wednesday so i should know more about the conditions after playing a couple games. |
Sept. 10, 2013 Jawood Men's 50 943 posts | That's a switch, the outfields turf, but the infields dirt? |
Sept. 10, 2013 ShaneV Men's 55 393 posts | I can understand why they would do that, in that desert climate. Here in rainy Western Washington the perfect combination is artificial infield and natural outfield. I much prefer that combination. I've only played artificial outfield once, in Medford OR a few years ago, and I can't say I liked it. Hot on the feet and the ball runs like it's got legs!!! Good news is it's the same for both teams, that's universal for all temps and conditions. ShaneV |
Sept. 19, 2013 FOFO Men's 60 284 posts | Played at Desert Breeze last night. The base paths are dirt but the rest of the infield and outfield is turf. Good shape and will be a good place to play. |
Sept. 19, 2013 armiho211 Men's 70 449 posts | is the ball going to bounce 20-30ft in the air if the outfielder doesnt catch it ?? |
Sept. 19, 2013 ShaneV Men's 55 393 posts | Any suggestions for a good place to take some BP next Friday morning before we play at Desert Breeze? Looks like there are 5 soccer fields across the road. ShaneV |
Sept. 20, 2013 FOFO Men's 60 284 posts | Ball bounces pretty high if its coming down at a steep angle but not too bad. I like playing the outfield there. BP will be a mess but on Friday or early on the weekends the soccer fields are the best bet. |
