Baseball Sand

Baseball sand is a specialized type of sand designed for use on baseball and softball fields. This material is carefully screened to achieve a consistent texture that provides excellent drainage and a firm, stable playing surface. The sand is typically free of large particles and debris, ensuring a smooth, even layer that reduces the risk of injury and allows for easy maintenance.

The "baseball" attribute indicates that this sand meets the specific requirements for infields, including optimal compaction and moisture retention. Its fine, uniform particles help prevent dust while offering enough firmness to support athletic activity. Common applications include baseball and softball infields, batting cages, and playgrounds. Pros include reduced dust, improved player safety, and easy maintenance, while a potential con is that it may not be suitable for heavy drainage applications outside of sports fields.
