it's not the only field in that league that was allowed to deteriorate so badly. out in amarillo, for example, the dump the dillas played in got so bad that the high school and college kids refused to play there and the locals refused to come watch any more and the team finally folded [with lots of bills unpaid, btw]. that place was always a dump, but back when the field was kept in decent shape and the toilets flushed it was the most vibrant and best attended team in the league. pray that does not happen at Lagrave. too much history, good ball players, etc., but that's a bad sign.
