Shaw Park, GA; A
5-year-old may not have a clue what "cutting -edge" means -- as sharp as the
sharpy side of a knife, maybe -- but the youngest baseball players at Shaw Park in east
Cobb County will be cutting-edge when they play the season opener today.
The Shetland League players, ages 4-6, will run, throw, hit and catch on the first
artificial turf installed for general use at a metro Atlanta public park. The Dalton Parks
and Recreation Department -- which has three soccer fields with artificial turf -- is the
only other park system in Georgia to have installed plastic grass for league use. The
Rockdale Miracle League, which conducts basebal games for children with handicaps, has one
field with synthetic turf.
