Auburn's baseball field is getting a facelift.
Auburn will soon begin a $30 million renovation of Plainsman Park, a project expected to be completed in stages at various points from 2024-26.
“This renovation is a vital part of enhancing the Auburn baseball experience at Plainsman Park for our donors, fans, students and most importantly our student-athletes,” Auburn Athletics Director John Cohen said. “The scope of these enhancements will touch all areas and help make the gameday experience uniquely Auburn.
Plainsman Park opened in 1998 on the site of Samford Stadium-Hitchcock Field, on which the Tigers have played for more than 70 years. There have been numerous upgrades over the years, including the addition of a state-of-the-art video message and replay board in 2017 and the Josh Donaldson Hitting Lab in 2021.
“Made possible by the contributions and efforts of many, this project couldn’t come at a better time for our program,” Thompson said. “We’ve been to five of the last six regionals, three of the four super regionals in our program’s history, two College World Series, had a No. 1 overall draft pick, built a statue for the only Hall of Famer in the history of our great league, hosted back-to-back regionals for the first time ever, set consecutive attendance records, and the list goes on.
