When we were at the stadium, there was a Kansas state high school playoff game. The stadium currently is the home of the independent Wichita Wingnuts and also the National Baseball Congress World Series. The stadium formerly was the home of the Wichita Wranglers, which were a AA affiliate of the Kansas City Royals and, at one time, the Wichita State University Shockers until WSU built a stadium on campus.
The stadium is known for the combination of a natural grass outfield with an artificial turf infield. But probably the greatest landmark is the green scoreboard in left field. There is a big dent in the scoreboard where Joe Carter (of Millwood HS in OKC, Wichita State University and the Toronto Blue Jays) hit a home run off my brother, who was pitching for Oklahoma City University. I hope he enjoys the photos!
