From Home Plate

Knoxville City crews are busy changing up the ball field at Young’s Park. Dennis Webb, Public Works Supervisor, says crews are modifying the field so it can accommodate both girls’ softball teams with bases at 60 feet; and boys’ baseball teams, with bases at 70 feet. Webb says they have taken the infield surface down two to three inches and made a sharp radius around the infield to separate the lime of the infield from the grass of the outfield. Webb says they also plan to put in a warning track in the outfield, to separate the grass from the outfield fence.
