Baseball DirtDirt is not dirt when it comes to baseball fields. About two-thirds of the pro baseball fields got their dirt from a dirt farm in New Jersey called Partac Peat. The company markets a secret mix for the infield (resilient), the warning track (extra crunchy), and the pitcher's mounds (firm). Mounds come in red, brown, orange, and gray colors. Roger Bossard, the White Sox head groundskeeper, scouted nationwide for dirt before settling on the mix provided by Partac Peat. (He uses sand under the grassy areas of the playing field.)Refer to Baseball Dirt. Because Partac Peat is a business product, the primary promotional method used for its sale is:

A. trade promotions
B. slotting allowances
C. personal selling
D. advertising in consumer magazines
E. publicity
