UNCG Baseball Stadium is a baseball venue located in Greensboro, North Carolina, USA. It is home to the UNC Greensboro Spartans college baseball team of the Division I Southern Conference. It has a capacity of 3,500 spectators and opened in 1999.
The venue opened on February 12, 1999, for a game against George Washington. The game was played in front of a crowd of 1,835 spectators.
The facility encompasses 10,000 square feet (930 m2) of space on approximately 13 acres (53,000 m2) of land. It cost $5.4 million to build.
Features of the venue include a press box, PA system, concessions, offices, lights, a drainage system, dugouts, and a scoreboard. 889 permanent seats and additional berm seating make up a seating capacity of approximately 3,500.
In 2006, a new scoreboard was installed at the stadium. It includes a videoboard, which shows live statistics during games.
In 2012, John Manuel of Baseball America called the stadium "one of the best mid-major ballparks in the Southeast." In the same year, writer Eric Sorenson ranked the stadium the second best small venue in Division I baseball.
