For the first time in 12 years, Stevenson University baseball will have its very own digs—on campus.

In the venue’s inaugural game, the Mustangs take on Messiah—in a matchup of future Middle Athletic Conference rivals—Wednesday at 3 p.m.

Park Field's grand opening ceremony, which begins at 2 p.m., will feature free hot dogs, drinks and giveaways provided by the President’s Office.

Improvements to the field—located behind the Greenspring Valley Road campus—include a 32-foot press box and enclosed dug outs for both the home and away team. In addition to the game field, there is also a new practice infield, bullpen mounds, two batting tunnels and a soft toss/tee hitting area.

Previously, Stevenson played its home games at Ripken Stadium, which houses the Aberdeen Ironbirds, and at the Bachman Sports Complex in Glen Burnie.

Overall, the Mustangs are 7-5 in 2012 with a 1-2 record in the conference.
