The Yankee Stadium outfield looks a little better than it did on the Yankees' last homestand, but it's still in bad shape.
The outfield was torn up during the Yuri Foreman-Miguel Cotto boxing match June 5 and still has not recovered. The grounds crew appears to have laid down some new grass while the team was on the West Coast last week, but there are still plenty of dead spots.
"It's not necessarily better," center fielder Curtis Granderson said. "They put some new grass out there, but it's not everywhere. It looks like there's a lot of seed stuff maybe. There's a lot of green stuff out there. I don't know what it is. Before it looked like paint. [Brett Gardner] slipped and his uniform turned bright green. I'm not sure what's out there."
The Yankees are concerned what will happen to the grass when Jay-Z and Eminem perform two concerts in the outfield in September.
