    Ah I could respond to this negatively but I will take my wins when they come. Dirt infield is a win for everybody. I'm happy.

    I assume it will be similar to Tropicana Field's "full dirt infield" albeit with a bit of turf - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tropicana_Field

    When you're taking a dump and they flush on you? The worst.

    At least it'll look more attractive.. Tropicana Field wouldn't be so bad if it were a retractable roof stadium.. that catwalk-supported roof wrecks the game and it looks awful on TV.

    Especially when it sounds like it's exploding due to high pressure.. the noise bothers me. At least they still had manuals last season--whether they're still there in 2016 is another question. We'll have to wait and see in April.. I've got tickets for the A's series in April..

    The small plot of turf in the infield would be a good place to experiment with some grass.

    If installing grass throughout the infield and outfield is too big a project then maybe the Rogers Centre could have a grass/dirt infield and a artificial turf outfield (would that be a first?). The opposite has been done (turf infield/grass outfield) - http://www.thesuburbanite.com/articl...ORTS/151209981
