1
- True
- False
2. When a light rain is coming and you will need to get a game in and play through it, you should:
1
- scarify the infield skin with a nail drag for better drainage while raining.
- do nothing until after the game -- anything you do before or during will create more problems.
- add a layer of calcined clay to help with absorption.
3. When you know rain is coming and you are unable to get tarps on the field, the best thing you can do is:
1
- use a float drag to smooth the surface and, ideally, roll your infield for compaction and maximum runoff.
- do a reverse-raindance that will stave off any rain event.
- prepare your supply of calcined clay to use on puddles and wet areas after the rain event has stopped.
- quickly use your nail drag over the infield skin to open up the surface for better drying.
