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. &quot;I played out here 27-years ago,&quot; Ball said stopping between racking the mixture of sand and clay. &quot;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.&quot; (Chris Jackson/The Register-Herald)
