Best ballpark in the Carolinas

Recommended Posts

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.

    • I had to watch it again. Whoever has on that outfit is going to hear it for a few days around campus lol. Gave me Happy Gilmore vibes. Kinda looks like they were playing. He knocked his hat off .... and cam smacked the fire out his ass... he'll prolly keep his job but im wondering could the mascot guy have a case out of this? 
    • lol I hate being negative about the team I’m always such a glass half full guy and optimistic. But Tepper has done that to me man. It’s not our first time under Tepper having a winning record around this time of year. Always turned out to be a fugazi, so I’m tempering expectations. Obviously I’m way happier being 4-3 than having our seasons over by now like the last several years. But Bryce is truly terrible and I don’t see any way around our weak QB position this year as the schedule gets much tougher. I’m becoming more and more optimistic though about the progression of the D and what Canales can do with a legit QB behind this line and this running game and progression of young WRs. But that’ll take at least next offseason so this year I’m tempering expectations significantly. 
    • yep. But who looked at the neglect of - and outright thievery from  - the defense, basically since we took Jaycee Horn high, and ever thought it was a one year fix? Not you and not me, pretty sure.  I mean they put the tab for Bryce on the defense, on top of some neglect that had already happened. So it was really extreme attrition. I admit to much resentment and yes I took it out on Bryce because he was supposed to be helping us. We weren’t supposed to have to help him like that. I could have been more sympathetic lol.
