Do you expect Mike Hall himself to take money from his already small salary to PAY to fill holes in the field? Honestly, I don't see how you could've thought out the post you just made. The county is responsible for Sheldon Clark's field and obviously THAT is where they're lacking so-called "pride". The school doesn't have its own field, that is the "city park" and belongs to Martin County itself. Sheldon Clark baseball just doesn't get the kind of funding needed to maintain a field to your liking... when in all reality the county should be stepping up and keeping regular maintenance.

Most teams have their players rake and take care of their fields after each practice and games. I think that Sheldon Clark is very capable of suppling a couple of rakes to its baseball team so they could rake a little bit of dirt back into the holes created on the mound and in the batters boxes. It doesn't take a whole lot of effort. I think that Paintsville plays on a city field and their players take care of raking and so forth. Pikeville plays on a city field and so do they. That's all a pretty lame excuse IMO. It's just simple little routine stuff, you dont have to have a budget for .In the time it takes to say "it ain't my job" you can take care of a lot of little things yourself if you take enough pride in what you've got.
