Agent Scott Boras wants Major League Baseball to be more careful and prevent wet bases from being used in games after periods of inclement weather, according to ESPN's Jerry Crasnick.
His comments come just one day after his client and Washington Nationals star Bryce Harper was injured in the first inning of Saturday night's game against the Washington Nationals when he stumbled over first base. Harper did not tear any ligaments or tendons but suffered a bone bruise that will keep him out of the lineup for an indefinite amount of time.
"We go to great lengths with the soil to make sure it's not wet and there are drying agents on the ground,'' Boras said.
