Frequently Asked Questions

Question: How is a Miracle Field different than a traditional baseball field?

Answer: The surface is completely flat and rubberized. The bases and chalk lines are painted onto the surface. This eliminates the uneven surface of a traditional field that would otherwise create obstructions to walkers or wheelchairs, as well as those who may have vision impairments. The rubberized surface also absorbs more impact than the dirt or grass of a traditional field. This helps lower the risk of injury. The dugouts are also designed to be more accessible than traditional dugouts, allowing access to walkers and wheelchairs. The field is also smaller than a traditional field. Less distance between bases and a smaller outfield means the ball doesn’t have to travel as far when throwing or batting, and the player doesn’t have to run as long.

Question: What is a Buddy?

Answer: A Buddy is a volunteer ranging in age from junior high to senior citizens. Each Player gets paired with a Buddy for the season where they will be on the field to assist players with batting, throwing the ball, running the bases, and above all else, keeping the Player safe at all times.
