Best ballpark in the Carolinas

Obviously it's not Knights Castle, it's out of the way and it's very basic.

I like West End Field in Greenville, it even has a little Green Monster and it's dimensions mirror Fenway.

BB&T Coastal Field in MB is great, too. I've also heard good things about Five County in Zebulon.

Anyone have any favorites?

Durham Bulls Athletic facility is probably the best in the state.

Boshamer Stadium (UNC) and Doak Field (NC State) are both top notch.

If you're a big baseball fan you'd probably appreciate Newman Park in Salisbury. Newman park is on the campus of Catawba College and also host the Rowan County American Legion baseball team. Newman is a historical stadium, it's still got wooden bleachers underneath a big, metal roof. The outfield wall is only about 325 in left, 360 center and 310 in right, but the wall is 25+ feet tall all the way around. I really didn't do it justice by trying to describe it, but it's really a beautiful place to spend hot June evening.

I've always wanted to check out the ballpark in Greenville but never have.

I usually hit several Kannapolis Intimidators games a year though. Nothing fantastic Good bang for your buck and a fun crowd on Thirsty Thursday.

one of the best looking fields anywhere, not to mention a pretty good team plays on the field too.

      Great point.    I would lke to add that there is another QB on the roster who was terrible over the middle--Kenny Pickett.

      I don't think this is the year for Carolina, unfortunately.  I think they will have to make a decision on the QB position-all we know is that Bryce has year 5, but a long term deal has not been signed--yet--and they would be smart to take a "wait and see" approach.  I have not kept up, and I see a path to upside for Bryce, but I do not think we have aggressively pursued a QB when our QB was mediocre to worse than mediocre.  yes, his numbers are improving--but he has adapted by eliminating what he does poorly and not improving on what he does poorly.  Just my take and I have no data to support this view.   Basically, we go as Bryce goes, so the approach is not to bring in a QB to have him compete until we find one, but it is to make Bryce as good as he can be--is that good enough? Season ticket holders buy the hope of winning rings, not winning 8 games. Last year, Bryce had a resurgence.  Take away TMac and Rico Dowdle.  How good was he?  I still have hope.  Not a hater of plan A, but a hater because we have no plan B.

      Yeah man, I've been here for a very very long time. Couldn't even begin to tell you what year. Maybe 2004 or 5? I've never really been super active, just enjoy reading everyone's opinions and discussions. I'll chime in from time to time. I have had a few different accounts over the years. It's always been a fun place for me to check in on my favorite team. Hopefully we can keep the place running for a long while still. I also would like to recommend bringing back the Lovely Ladies page!
