Oh, and I'm wondering... there are 2 minor league parks... so you mean the not so nice one? We played there last year... could be an adventure.

Thank you Kyle.


Ok I didn't know there were two fields so now im not sure which one it is.

Well we played on both... and the difference was night and day. The field itself was fine, but the lighting at one was not so great. That was the "old" one, but as I understood it... no one played there... so I have no idea and am rambling.

Christensen Stadium on North Loop 250


T-Bird Dad (Lee) and I (High) are both from Midland. Attended many an event at that stadium.

All I heard about it is that it was a big field like 335 down the lines and 395 in center.

Christensen Stadium

Go make us proud!

Good luck...and "be prerpared". The fans will be there "en force" from El Paso. They are passoniate!

Boy, what a marketing job...the headline that comes up when you click that link really makes you want to sprint to the park.

Midland Weather for Fri. & Sat.

Don't worry, it never rains. It only blows red dirt 90 mph.

I just hope it's to left field.

Don't forget the game can be heard on www.thevoucher.net. Friday at 5pm

Get ready for the softball chants coming from the dugout!!!

If you let that type of stuff get to you then you don't have any business playing at this level.

And if you can't beat a team that performs softball chants.....well....that's like losing to a team that sports red pants.

Had an interesting experience with a Region Semi-final game in El Paso several years ago. Be happy you are playing in Midland. Our team flipped and lost and played all 3 games at the El Paso home field. The crowd was the biggest H.S. crowd I've ever seen and they were loud and rowdy. One kid threw full cans of pop on to the field when he was unhappy with the umpiring. A critical question is who is umpiring behind the plate? In our series, an El Paso ump was behind home plate for 2 of the 3 games that El Paso was "home". The games were drastically different than when the imported non-West Texas ump was behind home plate.

Remember though, these are just kids out there.

Well I have witnessed several Metro area HS teams that perform chants. Most are from the East or West side of the Metro. The key to the El Paso Socorro team is their chants are in Spanish! No kidding!

That will be good because our guys wont know what they are saying, and if it's a good sounding chant our guys may dance to it.
