RAINCOVER ULTRA™ BASEBALL TARP BATS A THOUSAND FOR THE BRAVES

Atlanta, GA - COVERMASTER® infield tarp is the strongest core field cover in the game.

The Atlanta Braves compete in the National League (NL) East Division of Major League Baseball (MLB). They play out of Truist Park which is about 10 miles outside of downtown Atlanta. With seating for over 41 thousand spectators, the ballpark is considered to have excellent sightlines and of course, top notch field conditions. They are also a long-time customer of COVERMASTER®, the world leader in sports surface protection.

The playing field at Truist Field has had a variety of grass turf and by 2023, the Braves chose a fast growing, perennial Ryegrass with a hybrid Bermuda grass overseed to help with the hotter temperatures of the south. To protect their infield from rainy weather, they use COVERMASTER® RAINCOVER ULTRA™ the industry’s strongest core and lightweight field cover. In fact, the Braves have just replaced their nearly 7-year-old baseball field tarp with another RAINCOVER ULTRA™.

Designed to withstand hundreds of pounds of water on its surface, RAINCOVER ULTRA™ is more than 200 pounds lighter than any other field tarps in the industry. It’s easier to handle and minimizes time and labor. The Braves are so impressed with its durability and performance that they ordered a 175 by 175-foot RAINCOVER ULTRA™ again in white/silver to minimize heat buildup with COVERMASTER® exclusive SHIELD-TEK™ coating technology. It’s a grand slam for their infield protection.
