High School Baseball Venues
High School Baseball Venues
All the talk about seedings and where games are being played got me thinking.
Who has the best high school baseball venue in each league/conference?
SOC I
SOC II
TVC - Hocking
TVC - Ohio

Re: High School Baseball Venues
Washington CH is gorgeous for the fans.
Unioto is outstanding as well.
Haven't been to Northwest in a few years, but it used to be amazing. I hope it still is.
Out of the TVC Ohio fields I've been to, Athens was my favorite. Although, I'm sure people will say Meigs and there's nothing wrong with that.

Re: High School Baseball Venues
Rock Hill is the nicest in the OVC, especially with the new turf, and it's really not even close, outside of Gallia.

PVC: Fort Frye
Stadium chair back seating all around the backstop area, with elevated area for lawn chairs. Not a bad seat in the house.
Trees for shade in hot weather. Right along the Muskingum River, so there's usually a nice breeze blowing.
nice dugouts, grass infield. Screened fence around the outfield. Press box above third base dugout.
Nice concession stand with Burgers, brats, and dogs hot off the grill.
American Legion Post 389/750 team also uses the field for home games.
Come visit

I used to love playing at Branch Rickey Park in Portsmouth back in the day ... played vs PHS there, as well as played American Legion ball there in the summers ... some great memories playing in that historic stadium ...

Re: High School Baseball Venues
Completely agree. Played Legion there and loved the atmosphere. Even took in some Portsmouth Explorer games. SSU needs to sink some money into that place and really bring back it's greatness. With a name like Branch Rickey Park, you would think the city or someone would vest a little more time and money into it and Spartan Stadium, both venues are basically landmarks that have been kicked to the side by Portsmouth. Would love to see SSU take over both and bring college football to the area along with renovations to Branch Rickey, could turn that place into a great place to watch games again.

Waterford too short of fences, but they have updated a lot

Probably wouldn't consider it se ohio for most, but beavers field in Lancaster is beautiful.
Re: High School Baseball Venues
Just because the fences are short doesn't mean it isn't the best. Belpre doesn't have a mound on either side for pitchers to warm up on.Irish Dawg wrote:TVC-Hocking Belpre

very accurate as far as OVC goes. Although Portsmouth outfield after a rain is very thick, singles city lolbbn77 wrote:OVC best fields

Re: High School Baseball Venues
Hocking would definitely be Waterford.... although Eastern also has a nice place to play. I would say Waterford though just because of the new renovations. That fence is just so shallow though

Re: High School Baseball Venues
As far as playing surface and grass goes, Symmes Valley by far has the best surface my team played on all year. Seating not great, but field is beautiful.
