No More "Bullpen Failure" - maybe
Rangers get to test synthetic turf to be used at Globe Life Field. What are they saying?
"Andrus, though, said the turf would be a bigger deal for outfielders, and Joey Gallo, who played center field in the Rangers’ 5-4 walk-off loss, said that the Chase Field surface still isn’t a finished product."
"The grounds crew is continuing to experiment with upkeep, and Gallo said that it felt a bit soft. The balls, though, were bouncing true."
'“I don’t want to put too much into it, but it felt all right,” Gallo said. “It’s not grass, but I guess it’s as close as it can get.”'
