The NIAAA is also pleased to offer two other new DVD's , "Baseball Mound Construction: A Professional Approach" and "Maintaining the Home Plate Area: A Professional Approach. Modeled after the format of the popular cable television show "This Old House," the DVD's feature live, step-by-step, start to finish instruction from Professional Baseball Sports Turf Managers, Larry Divito of the Washington Nationals and Bob Christofferson of the Seattle Mariners. The DVD's demonstrate how to build a first-class mound and maintain the home plate area like the pros, taking into account that many high schools have limited budgets and resources to maintain their athletic fields, in particular the mound and the home plate area. $15.00 plus shipping purchases both DVD's.
