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

Recent Visits

LaGrave Field, Fort Worth Cats
It is one of the most unique facilities in pro ball: LaGrave Field, the home of the Fort Worth Cats (independent; American Association), sits where the original LaGrave Field sat from 1926 through 1967. The dimensions are the same as in the original facility, home plate sits in the same place, and the dugouts of the old ballpark have been converted to dugout suites. And, being Texas, there's a hitching rail beyond the outfield for folks riding to the games on horseback.

Doug Kingsmore Stadium, Clemson Tigers
Before its thorough makeover and renaming in 2003, “Beautiful Tiger Field” described the home of the Clemson Tigers. Not surprising, and not an overstated moniker. While the ballpark and other athletic facilities are closely connected to the western edge of campus, the grandstand view features an appealing pastoral feel, and although the ballpark is now named for Tigers alum and contributor Doug Kingsmore, it's still a beautiful field.

QuikTrip Park at Grand Prairie, Grand Prairie AirHogs
The aviation theme is strong at QuikTrip Park at Grand Prairie, the new home of the Grand Prairie AirHogs (independent; American Association), but it's not overwhelming and gimmicky. We were there opening night: it's an impressive facility that raises the bar for indy facilities and should allow the team to be competitive in the increasingly crowded Dallas-Fort Worth market.
