baseball park

Where innings unfold

A baseball park is a stadium or outdoor venue designed specifically for playing baseball, featuring a diamond-shaped infield, outfield grass or turf, and seating for spectators.

The term is often used interchangeably with ballpark or baseball stadium, though park suggests the traditional open-air character of the venue.
