How does the dampness of the ground effect how an outfielder should play

The dampness of the ground can make the ball stop rolling, so that the outfielder would have to play further in, but the dampness also affesct the outfieldsers ability to get to the ball, so he needs to play conservatively. Also, the sampness cold make the ball skim over the top and wuickly passed the fielder, but this is less likely.
