We hit last Saturday, it was good. Lots of cuts, only had 4 compared to the previous 20+. Should be warm enough to have a good turn out this weekend.

20 people isn't batting practice...that's called a game!
Honestly, more than 5 or 6 and BP starts to really drag out into an all day event.

I hope so. Last time there was a planned BP made on here, I drove 40 minutes and found no one there!
As long as it doesn't pour rain, I plan on hitting somewhere tomorrow.

It's going to be too wet, getting lots of rain here tonight.

Definitley let us know, I was bringing a friend as well, but it doesn't look good. Figures, it was looking like a decent turnout too.
I will check the board tomorrow morning.

I'm in for Carolina pines again, but 70% chance of rain on Friday.

Yep, weather is playing the spoiler. Today and tomorrow are probably going to be the nicest/driest days.

Went out to hit some on Thursday. The infields were a little soft and the outfield ended up being a wet sponge! Didn't find this out till I went to pick up the balls! After the rain this morning, looks like it's going to be several more days of "waiting" around here. I'm ready to play.
Thats exactly what I was afraid of. Why cant it rain on Mondays and Tuesdays and be dry the rest of the week through the weekend.

It's done raining, I will stop by the field around lunch and see if we have a chance for tomorrow.

Hopefully those southside fields look better than the ones Raleigh maintains up here. After seeing how wet they were yesterday, I won't even bother after the downpour we had this morning. And that sucks because tomorrow is shaping up top be a nice day!
The infield would have been fine if it had been "dragged" during the day. It was dry just below the surface. But it had a slimy goop on top. I kicked the batters box clean with my shoe, and it was fine. I was just shocked how much water was still in the outfield!

Millbrook Exchange Park
1905 Spring Forest Rd., Raleigh, NC, 27658
It's right next to Millbrook High School, on Spring Forest Rd between Falls of Neuse and Atlantic Ave. From Durham, I'd come up 70 or 40 to 540, and take the Falls of Neuse exit. Follow Falls of Neuse down to Spring Forest, take a left on Spring Forest, park in about a mile down on your left, behind the Fire Department.

I checked 3 fields in south Raleigh. 2 of the 3 were good. My boy said millbrook looked fine.
