A new playing field

The D-backs will be taking the field with a new, well, field. According to a release from the team, Chase Field has new "state-of-the-art synthetic grass."

The D-backs say the new turf will save millions of gallons of water, but has infill that "forms a firm surface similar to natural soil with lower energy rebound levels identical to high-performance natural grass."

"The result is a more natural playing posture and motion from the players, creating less fatigue as their bodies will not have to overcompensate for the “bounciness” of the surface," the team said.

The field, according to the team, also "creates natural baseball bounce, allowing players to charge the ball confidently while fielding."

"The playing surface at Chase Field will appear nearly identical to that which has been in place since the stadium opened in 1998," the team said.

You can also meet the players every game...sort of

Another new addition is the Cox Virtual Meet and Greet. Fans will have the opportunity to virtually meet their favorite D-backs player or legend at every home game.

The experience is located in the Cox Connects Bullpen at center field. The experience lasts about a minute and a half and fans will get an digitally autographed photo to take home.
