Blue Jay Way



Blue Jay Baseball Diamond at Johns Hopkins University as seen from down the left-field line, Mar-2010.

The field looks out at apartment buildings across University Parkway.

Quick Facts:
Johns Hopkins University plays its baseball games at this field, located at the northeast corner of its Homewood campus, about three miles north of the Inner Harbor. (Charles Street, the eastern border of the campus, is Baltimore’s meridian street, dividing east from west in addresses.) The field is less than a mile from the former site of Memorial Stadium.

The Blue Jay Baseball Diamond has limited seating: a section of bleachers five rows high behind the plate, and bleacher sections three rows high flanking each dugout. The JHU student section typically forms in the bleacher behind the plate. There is no press box; the scorer and announcer sit at a table in front of the bleachers behind the plate.

The natural-surface field, which faces due north, has a rise in right field, as the ground level rises to meet University Parkway. A fan I met during the weekend in which I attended games here told me that there was no fence at one time; there is one now.
