Field surface: not yet verified
Not yet verified. The city doesn't state the field surface. In August 2024, turf supplier A-G Sod Farms published a case study on replacing the worn outfields of two of the eight fields with 57,000 square feet of natural grass sod, so at least those outfields are grass. We found no source covering the infields or the other six fields. (Eight lighted fields: four with 315-foot fences and four with 210-foot fences, all with covered dugouts; stadium seating on the championship field (City of Palmdale).)
