rockmom Posted June 5, 2007 Share Posted June 5, 2007 What is the seatring capacity of UL's Jim Patterson Stadium? I'm guessing it will be sold out. The University of Louisville unveiled Jim Patterson Stadium, a state-of-the-art multimillion dollar baseball facility located at the corner of Central Avenue and Third Street, on Friday, April 15th as the Cardinals hosted East Carolina in front of U of L baseball record crowd of 3,213. There was a pregame ceremony officially dedicating the stadium featuring U of L graduate, former baseball team walk-on and local entrepreneur Jim Patterson, whose seven-figure donation spearheaded the drive to construct the ballpark. Dignitaries representing the University of Louisville, the athletic department and Commonwealth of Kentucky were also featured in the ceremony. Construction began on the facility in August of 2004 and it seats 2,500 including 1,500 chair-back seats and a grass berm in left field. There is a main press box with two radio booths, a television booth and an AD suite. The ballpark measures 330 feet down the lines, 375 to the power alleys and 402 to straightaway center, and a cutting-edge scoreboard in right field features an LED matrix scoreboard and a video screen. The playing surface is Field Turf, like Major League Baseball's Minnesota Twins and Tampa Bay Devil Rays as well as Louisville's Papa John's Cardinal Stadium. The exterior has elements that mirror U of L's nearby football facility. U of L now owns just the 2nd NCAA baseball facility with Field Turf on entire field with exception of mound and home plate, which will be dirt similar to Washington State's Bailey-Brayton Field.

stickymitts Posted June 5, 2007 Share Posted June 5, 2007 I would bet they are definitely adding seats to the outfield. I'm sure they'll try to get as close to 5000 as possible... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Outstanding performance in the Regionals, best of luck in the Super. This is Coach McDonnell's first year here. A lot of credit goes to Coach Prado for building the program to what it is today. But, definitely, as much goes to Coach McDonnell for running full steam ahead! It could have been a very scary transition year! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
