Atlanta, GA & Arlington, TX, USA – The Atlanta Braves and the Texas Rangers are already planning and preparing for their 2012 MLB season by using Covermaster’s Evergreen Radiant™ Turf Covers in the offseason.
Major League baseball is off for the winter break but that doesn’t mean that stadiums and field maintenance is put on hold until the spring. It is during these harsh winter months that the most damage can occur to a natural turf baseball field, so turf managers must take precautionary measures to properly maintain and protect the turf. The winter season can bring all types of harmful damage and effects for the grass including frost, winter kill and root destruction. Winter damage can be very costly for turf repairs and depending on the extent of the problem, whole field replacements may be the only solution. The best way to protect the health of the turf and prevent damage is to maintain an optimal environment year round ensuring consistent growing cycles and deep root strength no matter the weather.
The Texas Rangers rely on the advantages of Evergreen covers and have been using Covermaster’s turf line of products for over a decade. They rely on the benefits of having these covers for their turf and have recently switched to a custom sized Evergreen Radiant Turf Cover to completely seal off their outfield. The Atlanta Braves have also opted for a full outfield Evergreen Radiant cover to aid in their outfield turf protection this winter. The Braves were having particular trouble with heavy shading in parts of the field, so Evergreen Radiant will be used as a solution to regulate the turfs heating and maintenance. Covermaster’s Evergreen Radiant is our premium turf cover with a silver coating, open weave density and translucent polyethylene, which allows for the optimal amount of air and water penetration through the cover. Both MLB teams have the best defense for potential harm this winter and can be assured that when Spring Baseball arrives, their fields will be up to the standards of professional baseball.
