Stadium Reviews

Even though The Joe was a victim of Minor League Baseball’s downsizing, it remains a solid facility, and an excellent addition to the growing Frontier League. Here’s hoping that Capital District baseball fans realize that the ValleyCats remain as entertaining as ever, and that the baseball played on the field might actually be better than what they saw in their affiliated days.

From the moment you arrive at Trustmark Park – now proudly known as “The Swamp” – it’s clear the stadium has fully embraced its new identity.

My father never a fan of baseball, but for one afternoon in Hudson Valley, New York, he was.

A High Point Hushpuppies game is a decent fan experience on a summer's night. While this isn't the elaborate fancy experience you will get at most other baseball stadiums in the Piedmont Triad and throughout North Carolina, this is small, friendly community baseball up close and personal. High Point locals who are fans of baseball will want to check this out at some point.

McCrary Park is an old stadium, but it manages to carefully balance the history of the ballpark with the need to change and improve amenities for modern times. The result is a community experience that allows fans to enjoy a ballgame in a great setting for nine innings on a warm summer night at a very affordable price. Baseball fans in North Carolina will definitely want to make the trip down to Asheboro to check out a Zookeepers game.

Since opening, Sutter Health Park has been a hit with both the Sacramento and baseball communities.

A Blue Jays farm team in the middle of Red Sox territory has to work harder to keep the fans coming, and the Fisher Cats staff do a great job filling Delta Dental Stadium year after year. While this may not be the most memorable ballpark out there, there’s plenty going on in Manchester to make a Stadium Journey to the Granite State worthwhile.

Fleming Stadium is a historic, old-fashioned baseball stadium that is a fine place to spend a summer night watching the Wilson Tobs. With an old covered grandstand and a small-town community feel, this is baseball as it used to be played. While Fleming doesn't have all the amenities of more modern stadiums, it is still a great place to watch a game.

Truist Field is one of the finest fields in minor league baseball. With a 360 degree concourse, a multitude of seating areas, a fan favorite mascot, and more, a trip here is a must for any baseball fan in the Carolinas.

A Hickory Crawdads game may be small town baseball in a remote location, but it is still a worthwhile experience. L.P. Frans Stadium is gorgeous architecturally, and the Crawdads do a good job with promotions and fan engagement. It is disappointing they do not draw bigger crowds, but given its location, there may be little they can do about that.

The Frisco Classic, managed by PEAK Events, is a pre-season NCAA Division I baseball tournament featuring top collegiate teams from around the country.

First National Bank Field is a gorgeous, modern stadium with all the amenities one might expect of a newer ballpark.

Professional baseball has deep roots in Knoxville, dating back to 1897 with the Knoxville Indians of the Southeastern League.

Truist Point is an unusual stadium, and not necessarily in a positive way. Nonetheless, if you are in the Piedmont Triad, a trip to a Rockers game can be a fun way to spend a summer's night. Hang out with Hype and watch a baseball game up close for a great price.
