“We feel like the stadium is second-to-none, and we like playing on the surface. They have redone the dressing rooms, and Abilene is a very hospitable place.”
Brad Davis
“It's a beautiful stadium and a beautiful [playing] surface. It was a lot more beautiful than how we played.”
Andy Reid
“We're going to get a brand-new scoreboard and playing surface and some type of shade roofing on the stadium. Our immediate plans include a new playing surface and grass berms in the bleachers near the bullpens.”
Andy Lopez
“Busch Stadium was fine. The playing surface was fine and the atmosphere was always outstanding. Those fans know their baseball. If there is a good play - even by the other team - they'll cheer.”
Damian Miller
“An uneven playing surface will affect us more than them. They play more of a more direct, aerial game and we prefer a passing game so we are bound to suffer if the pitch isn't in good condition.”
Xabi Alonso
“To play 18 years in Yankee Stadium is the best thing that could ever happen to a ballplayer.”
Mickey Mantle
“I imagine that when the Super Bowl goes back to a natural playing surface, we'll be with them.”
Paul Warburg
