Which ballpark is the nicest? And which ballpark has the most storied tradition? My vote for the most storied tradition goes to Jack Brown Stadium in Jamestown. It also is one of the nicest in the state.

msyelf getting to play in a lot of nice ballparks. J. Williams in fargo is or was really nice along with Mandan, Mayville State more now after they made some new add ons. BUT all time favorite place to play is the Brown. You dream of playing there for state and that state atmosphere and being on that bump is unbelievable!

Lisbon's ballpark is beautiful - down in the park, trees all around, well manicured, nice grandstand and press box - it's top shelf.

Jack Brown is even nicer now. New dugouts at the cost of 300,000 which most was raised through fund raisers and donations.

$300,000 for dugouts?
I liked playing in Jamestown. I felt so comfortable in the batter's box.

My favorite placed I've played at is Hendrickson Field in Enderlin. Got that old school feel with the lights and the quirky dimensions due to the fact that it doubles as a football field. Townsend Field in LaMoure is pretty nice too.

I do like the atmosphere at Jack Brown. I remember playing at amateur state and we had a two game break, so I just slipped in the Merchant Room and took a nap on the couch. I do like that they got new dugouts at Jack Brown but I don't like how they are setup. The steps are huge to go sit on the benches at the top of the dugout, the handrails for the steps leading to the field are kind of an inconvenience, and I'd wish there was an entrance at the middle of the dugout.

Every ballpark has its quirks which makes that park unique.

Jack Brown is an awesome stadium. But when my son played at the legion state tourney a few years back at Lamoure, the atmosphere and the people from Lamoure were awesome. Great time. Great field also

Corbett Field in Minot is my favorite NoDak ballpark. It's been hard for me to accept all that fake turf on it though this year... ha ha

What was the name of Bismarck's field that had the huge dimensions? It was 335 down the lines, 385 to the gaps and 415(?) to center.
