"Ballparks should be happy places." -- Bill Veeck

Recent Visits

Clark-LeClair Stadium, ECU Pirates
East Carolina has the pleasure of playing at Clark-LeClair Stadium, one of the better newer facilities in college baseball. Clark-LeClair was built at a cost of $11 million -- all from private donations raised by the ECU Educational Foundation. The magnitude of the place is immediately apparent as you approach the main gate, and once inside no aspect of the facility disappoints. Jim Robins takes in a Pirates game.

Doak Field at Dail Park, NC State Wolfpack
It is always a fine thing when a college ballpark fits in just right with the scale and expectations of the baseball program it serves. This is particularly true when you look at Doak Field serving as home to the NC State Wolfpack. Most years, NC State features a handful of potential major leaguers on squads with an expectation to reach the NCAA Tournament (four straight years, 7 of past 10). The fit is right -- the rebuilt Doak Field at Dail Park is entirely worthy of the high-caliber Wolfpack program.

O'Brien Field, Peoria Chiefs
The minor-league baseball season may be over, but the far-flung correspondents of Ballpark Digest still have a boatload of ballpark visits to share with you over the next few weeks. We kick off the series with Gus Venditto's photos of O'Brien Field, the home of the Peoria Chiefs (Low Class A; Midwest League). With a wraparound concourse and trademark palm trees in the outfield, O'Brien Field is regarded as one of the nicest facilities in the Midwest League. It features all you'd expect from a modern ballpark: an outfield berm for family seating, 20 suites, party decks and a massive scoreboard.
