Hi,
I am building a small baseball field in my backyard. I am trying to figure out what to use as basepaths. I'd like it to be something that I don't have to constantly maintain. I was thinking of just paving the paths, but I didn't want something so permanent. I read somewhere that crushed brick is an option. Does anyone know if that's true? If so, what would be the best way to lay it and contain it? I was thinking of surrounding the basepaths with a wood border, digging out the space in between and laying the crushed brick. Do I also need landscape fabric underneath? Anything else I need to do? I can upload a picture if you need.
Thanks in advance
Josh

That is way super cool to have a basebwll field in your yard!
Maybe you should rent that Kevin Costner movie and see how he did it.

If you build it they will come!
