BASEBALL COMPLEX
In October 2016, the baseball stadium underwent historic renovations thanks to a record $2.2 million anonymous gift to the program. Vibrant FieldTurf colors of green and brown, new wordmarks and eight banks of lights were installed. The changeover from natural surface to turf allows the Bearcats much earlier access to their practice and game facility and the lighting means night games can be played for the first time in school history. The amenities also give Binghamton a primary facility to host conference tournaments and other championship-caliber baseball events.
Originally revamped in
September 2012, the baseball complex was one of three upgrades to the Bearcats Sports Complex along with the tennis courts and softball field. The 464-stadium seat capacity facility features professional-style sunken dugouts with heat. It also includes outdoor batting cages and bullpens. The complex is affixed with a 30-foot batters eye in center field as well as a press box.
In October 2017, a new state-of-the-art video scoreboard was installed. The Nevco 16mm Full Color LED Video Display stretches over 31' wide. The ultra sharp display is comprised of 216,000 pixels and can display dynamic player and game graphics, in-game action, up-to-the-minute statistics, virtual scoring and custom animation. In addition to the large video area, the lower portion of the board displays the customary inning-by-inning score. The eight-foot tall top decorative arch features the words "Binghamton University," an iconic "B" logo and a set of watchful Bearcat eyes.
The new board also includes a Stadium Pro 1000 sound system.
Dimensions: 325 feet down the lines, 365 feet in the alleys and 390 feet in dead center field.
