| Abstract/Contents: | Discusses light patches in the New York Mets baseball field. Explains that "the light colored patches are Poa annua or annual bluegrass, which in this situation is a weed grass that has infiltrated [the] stand of Kentucky bluegrass." Describes how Bill Deacon, manager of field operations attempts to control it, stating that "the best way is to mechanically remove it, either with a cup cutter or by resodding the larger patches." |
