MLB announces project to renovate ballfields all across US (Yahoo Sports)

Major League Baseball is launching a new community program to refurbish ballfields all across the country over the next three years. MLB announced Tuesday it will work with The Scotts Co. to identify and renovate diamonds in need of upgrades or repair. It's all part of the Play Ball initiative introduced by Commissioner Rob Manfred and USA Baseball last year, designed to attract more young people to baseball and softball while giving them additional opportunities to play.
