The baseball field is on the northwest corner of the main campus. Due to its location, flanked by campus buildings as well as a pair of busy streets and one of Plant’s former rail lines, the entire field complex is surrounded by netting, in addition to the usual nets that protect spectators. A lone osprey nest platform sits atop one of the net support poles. The field faces east, its orientation dictated in part by the rail line.

Spartans baseball has built a long track record of success. The roster frequently contains a large proportion of transfer students, a combination of junior college players and ones who were lost on the depth chart at NCAA Division I schools. The formula has worked; Tampa has won the Division II national championship nine times, most recently in 2024.

Prior to the 2023 season, the field was refitted with artificial turf, including the plate and mound areas.
