Infield Maintenance Equipment

Baseball and Softball Field Maintenance Equipment, Built for Daily Use

Keeping an infield safe and consistent takes more than a hose and a rake. JoySportStore stocks 16 pieces of baseball field maintenance equipment and softball field maintenance equipment from Jaypro, a single brand carried across every category so tools match in build quality and durability. This is infield maintenance equipment for the tasks that come up every practice and every gameday: dragging skinned areas smooth, tamping down high spots, digging out worn bases, and laying down straight, regulation batter's box lines. Prices run from $18 hand tools like the dirt tamps up to the $664 Double Play Monster Drag Broom, so facilities can outfit a single field or a full complex without hunting across multiple suppliers.

Because every product on this page comes from one manufacturer, buyers comparing softball maintenance tools against baseball-specific gear can expect similar materials and construction across the line — useful for parks departments, school athletic programs, and rec leagues that standardize equipment purchases year to year.

Batter's Box Templates for Baseball and Softball Fields

Laying out a batter's box by hand invites uneven lines and inconsistent dimensions from game to game. Jaypro's batter's box templates solve that with pre-formed frames sized to the level of play: the Little League template measures 3 ft. x 6 ft., the Official template measures 4 ft. x 6 ft. for high school and adult baseball, and the Softball template measures 3 ft. x 7 ft. to match softball's wider box requirements. For fields that host multiple leagues or age groups, the Adjustable Batter's Box Template lets grounds crews reconfigure dimensions without owning a separate template for every field size — a practical option for multi-use complexes and rec centers that rotate baseball and softball scheduling on the same diamond.

Drag Brooms and Scarifiers for Infield Grooming

Anyone searching for an infield groomer or baseball field maintenance machines is usually trying to smooth skinned infield dirt without renting a tractor attachment. Jaypro's drag broom lineup covers that ground-level work: the Monster Drag Broom and Double Play Monster Drag Broom break up compacted dirt and drag it level after practice or between innings, while the Double Play Scarifier Broom is built to loosen harder, packed infield surfaces before a standard drag pass. These are push or tow-behind hand tools rather than powered machines, which keeps them accessible for volunteer-run leagues and school programs that don't have infield equipment budgets for motorized groomers, while still addressing the same surface problems — ruts, footprints, and hardpan — that larger machines target.

Rakes, Tamps, and Hand Tools for Infield Maintenance

Rakes and tamps make up the bulk of day-to-day softball maintenance tools and baseball field grooming equipment, and Jaypro offers several sizes depending on the job. The Field Rake comes in 36 in. and 48 in. widths for covering larger skinned areas efficiently, while the Double Play Rake (24 in.) is sized for tighter spaces like the batter's box, base paths, or mound. The Base Runner Rake is shaped specifically for smoothing the arc worn into the basepath by runners. For leveling high spots and low spots in the dirt, the Dirt Tamp is available in 8 in. x 8 in. and 10 in. x 10 in. sizes — the larger tamp covers more surface per pass, while the smaller size works well for detail work around bases and the pitcher's plate. Rounding out the hand tools, the Sifting Shovel lets crews remove debris and rocks from infield mix without hauling out a full screen setup.

Base Maintenance: Plugs and Dig-Out Tools

Bases take a beating over a season, and the anchor sockets they sit in wear out along with them. Jaypro's Base Plug (Big League Series) fills unused base anchor holes so they don't collect water or become a tripping hazard during the off-season or between field configurations. The Base Dig-Out Tool is built for the opposite job — removing packed dirt and debris from around an anchor system so bases seat properly and stay level with the infield surface. Together these two tools address the base-related upkeep that often gets overlooked until a base starts shifting mid-game.

How to Choose Infield Maintenance Equipment for Your Field

Matching tools to your field starts with knowing which level of play you're maintaining. Little League and adjustable-use fields typically pair well with the smaller batter's box template and the 24 in. Double Play Rake, since crews are usually working a smaller footprint. Fields hosting official baseball or softball benefit from the larger 4 ft. x 6 ft. or 3 ft. x 7 ft. templates and the 36 in. or 48 in. Field Rakes, which cover more infield surface per pass and cut down on grooming time between games. Facilities running both sports on the same diamond should look at the Adjustable Batter's Box Template rather than stocking separate baseball and softball versions. For crews maintaining multiple fields, it's worth budgeting for both a drag broom (for regular surface grooming) and a scarifier broom (for periodically loosening compacted dirt), since the two tools address different stages of infield conditioning rather than duplicating the same job.
