SF Giants - Vol II

As stated in SF Giants, Vol. I, I was in San Francisco, CA, last week. The photos of opening day were posted earlier, so, let’s talk about the playing surface at AT&T Park.

The Giants play on a bermuda grass base that is overseeded with perennial ryegrass. Ryegrass is the surface for the entire season. The first photos show the playing surface and the stadium from left field and center field.





The Giants also use the entire family of Natural Sand products. For the game mound and bullpens, portable mounds and Dura Pitch Mound Clay from Natural Sand Company are used. To learn more about portable mounds click HERE. To learn more about Dura Pitch Mound Clay, click HERE. The infield is Dura Edge Pro infield mix.
