“The traction is real good, I think it's better on your knees, ankles and joints. I know I'd rather play on that than the regular artificial turf. When they said there was going to be no turf burns, we were like, 'Yeah, right'. They had us go sliding and diving on it, and we didn't get the burns.”

On the FieldTurf at Tropicana Field: "The turf there, it's not that quick. They have the natural dirt in the infield, too. It's not like a normal turf where the ball really flies through the infield. But it's still a little bit of an adjustment, because it bounces a little different than the natural ground. It's a true hop."
- Jed Lowrie, Shortstop, Boston Red Sox
“So far, so good. We’re enjoying it. We showed up a little early to get used to it but it’s really not that much different than playing on grass. And it’s not tough on the legs at all.”
