John Ball, center from Beckley, works on scattering baseball mix on the infield of one of the little league fields in Beckley as Adam Bond, of Beckley, drives a tractor to fill up on more on Monday. The two volunteer their working often 13-hour days to get the fields ready for opening day this weekend, Ball said. "I played out here 27-years ago," Ball said stopping between racking the mixture of sand and clay. "My little brother plays here. My dad played here. We just try and get it ready and look as nice as possible and get the kids a good place to play." (Chris Jackson/The Register-Herald)
