ABSTRACT:
This invention relates to a batters' box for baseball or softball diamonds which includes a composite, laminated reinforced pad which is embedded beneath the batters' box surface by at least one inch (1") of earth. This permits the surface of the batters' box to be consistent with the surface of the surrounding area of the diamond. The composite, laminated pad prevents the batters from digging deep holes in the batters' box thereby necessitating frequent, extensive repairs for the groundskeeper. With the batters' box of the invention, the batters are permitted to establish their footing in the batters' box without being able to dig deep holes therein.
The invention also includes the method of preparing the batters' box of the invention.
