How do they change baseball fields into football fields?

Awesomeness in a box asked:
Some teams use the same baseball field for the city’s football team. How do they change it into a football field? What do they do with the pitchers mound?

They don’t do anything besides put the white lines on it.

They tear down the mound, paint the foot ball lines on the field and drag mobile seats out as well.

The fields basically have the same deminsions. 300 feet is 100 yards so they can pretty much just go from one side of the field to the other. All they have to do is put up fences and paint the lines
As far as the pitchers mound, they just clean up the dirt but in most cases, the mound doesn’t fit onto the field because of the dimensions.
