To smooth out the holes in the dirt created by ground balls and cleats to try and prevent bad hops… and cuz it looks pretty

Keep the dirt surface consistent.

It’s a tradition dating back to the old days of baseball.
They used to drag convicted criminals by horseback through the bases as a form of entertainment for the crowds and as a crime deterrent.
Humane laws prevent it these public displays of humiliation nowadays.

It is like when the wife gets a bikini wax. The playing surface needs to be freshen up from time to time.
