I'll have to admit, so far I haven't seen many of them but, my favorite to date is University of Illinois Chicago. Nice field, very scenic with the Chicago skyline in the outfield. Rosenblatt was awfully nice though when we saw some CWS games there years ago.

Wrigley Field is my favorite pro field.

Chicago area...UIC is the best college field, great backdrop of Downtown Chicago. North Central College (DIII) has a great field too, I think it was like $3million.

Pro field...Wrigley. Miller Park is pretty sweet too.

As little of seen of College ball fields, We loved North Central College. but UIC is a great place to be. I just saw a picture of the new field at Southwest Missouri State. It has got to be the most beautiful college field in the U.S. Of course its only a picture, but from the looks, it was $30 Mil, well spent !! ok .maybe im exagerating. But.. YES $ 30 MIL. Hammonds Field.

hitNrun, Yes, Southwest Missouri State is going to be an excellent place!!! They actually took it to the University of Nebraska last year in Regionals. Their program had some outstanding players that got drafted!! With the new ball park, they should do well with recruiting!!!

UIC's background, with North Central's actual field, that combination can't be beat.
