Abstract/Contents:"The game of baseball played on natural turf surfaces inevitably results in damage to the grass. Generally with the batted ball, only the leaves are sheared and the stems are left intact. Ball mark injury is different from divoting, yet it is an important source of baseball infield damage. Injury recovery is a matter of topgrowth recuperation rather than filling in a hole. Turf observations from restricted irradiance research indicated that the turf density was reduced and the stems were softer in the turf grown under limited irradiance compared to that in non-limiting irradiance. This is consistent with observations of other grasses (McBee and Holt, 1996). It was thought that batted baseball injury would be more severe in restricted irradiance and could be exacerbated by certain cultural practices so it was the objective of this work to evaluate the effect of nitrogen and height of cut on injury and recovery of zoysiagrass turf."
