The ground at Waverly Park is wretched. The left field slopes far below the level of the infield, and the centre and right field are also bad for fly catching. To make matters worse, the grass was long, and no matter how “hot” a low grounder might be sent, it would hardly go past “short” or second. The left field should be filled up and leveled, and the grass on the infield kept properly cut, otherwise it will hardly be possible to play either an interesting or a fair contest. The lack of enterprise in not attending to these important “points” speaks badly for the Resolutes.
