UC Baseball Stadium

UC Baseball Stadium is a baseball stadium in Cincinnati, Ohio, on the campus of the University of Cincinnati. It is the home field of the Cincinnati Bearcats. The stadium holds 3,085 people and opened in 2004. The stadium was named after late Cincinnati Reds owner Marge Schott from 2006 to 2020, when her name was taken off due to renewed controversy over her racist remarks.

Name
In 2006, the stadium was renamed to Marge Schott Stadium, after former Cincinnati Reds owner Marge Schott, two years after her Marge and Charles J. Schott Foundation donated $ to the university's athletic department for the Richard E. Lindner Varsity Village. At one point, the university expressed interest in renaming the stadium to "Kevin Youkilis Field at Marge Schott Stadium", after former Bearcat and major leaguer Kevin Youkilis. However, Youkilis, who is Jewish, declined to be associated with Schott, who was known for racist and anti-Semitic statements. On June 23, 2020, the university's board of trustees voted unanimously to remove Schott's name from both the stadium and a space in the university's archives library, effective immediately. == Facilities ==

The stadium holds 3,085 people and opened in 2004. In August 2014, TriplePlay HP System turf was installed, replacing the original field turf. All areas of the field, including the warning track, home plate, pitcher's mound, and bullpens are now turf. In 2012, college baseball writer Eric Sorenson ranked the stadium as the third most underrated venue in Division I baseball. ==Attendance==
