CINCINNATI - We're less than a month away from the start of the Cincinnati Reds 2013 season, and Friday the team pulled off the grow blanket at Great American Ball Park.

The blanket covers the outfield and infield grass, allowing it to grow in the winter months like it was a summer climate.

You can watch the unveiling of this year's field in the video player above.
