Jimmy Piersall says baseball grounds crews doctored infields to help home teams win. He cites 1959 Go-Go White Sox at Comiskey Park and 1960 Pirates with fast turf to boost slugging, noting altered foul lines and tarp speed. He recalls Harmon Killebrew and Roberto Clemente benefiting from engineered conditions.
