Deltaville Ballpark was originally built in 1948, and is owned by the Deltaville Community Association. Located at the end of Ballpark Road in Deltaville, Virginia, it hosts baseball games from several different teams and organizations. ==Field and stadium== The wooden grandstands provide covered seating for approximately 300 fans. They are protected from foul balls by a crab pot wire fence.〔Daily Press. (''In Deltaville, Baseball and Boating Rule the Day'' - "In Deltaville, Baseball and Boating Rule the Day" )〕 A small press box sits in the top two rows behind home plate; it has telephone connections to each dugout, scoreboard controls, microphone, and a PA/Music system. Each dugout sits at the end of the grandstands, and is recessed into the ground, protected with chain link. A bullpen for one pitcher/catcher is further down the line. Beside the home team dugout (3rd base line) is an additional seating area with room for approximately 15-20 spectators. Views can be obstructed by the dugout at ground level. The infield playing surface is skin, which drains remarkably well for a field of its type. Hundreds of holes are drilled beneath its surface, filled with rock, to facilitate drainage. The outfield is plain old fashioned grass of many types. Outfield wall dimensions are 300-365-290, with the metal wall being approximately 9 feet tall. Even with the high wall, the short distance down the lines leads a large number of home runs. The entire playing field is lighted by a number of lighted poles. One of the poles in right center field is home to an Osprey nest, whose occupants occasionally will leave remains of fish to be found by an unsuspecting outfielder. There is one male and one female bathroom in a bathhouse located behind the home dugout. This building also serves as equipment storage. A small concession stand sits behind the press box, and is open for many of the games throughout the year, selling hot dogs, hamburgers, popcorn, soft drinks, chips, and other ballpark fare. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Deltaville Ballpark」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
