==History==

===Renaming===
Former Clemson baseball player and Board of Trustees Emeritus Doug Kingsmore gave the Clemson athletic department a $1 million gift towards renovation of Clemson's baseball stadium, formerly known as '''Tiger Field'''. George Bennett, former executive director of [[IPTAY]], made the announcement in 2000. Bennett also announced that the facility would be called Doug Kingsmore Stadium.

===Postseason===
The stadium has hosted three [[Atlantic Coast Conference baseball tournament]]s ([[1976 Atlantic Coast Conference Baseball Tournament|1976]], [[1977 Atlantic Coast Conference Baseball Tournament|1977]], [[1978 Atlantic Coast Conference Baseball Tournament|1978]]), 14 NCAA regionals (1994, 1995, 1996, 1998, 2000, 2001, 2002, 2005, 2006, 2009, 2011, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2023), and four NCAA super regionals (2000, 2002, 2006, 2010).

==Renovations==
{{update|section|date=April 2016}}
Renovations to Doug Kingsmore Stadium began in the summer of 2002. The design was done by HOK Sport (now [[Populous (architects)|Populous]]) and construction by Yeargin Potter Shackelford Construction. The stadium has a brick facade that surrounds every entrance. A green roof that covers much more of the stands and a press box that is twice as large adds to the comfort of fans attending the game and the media covering it. The [[press box]], which is accessible by elevator, includes four large booths for broadcasting and a separate media center that accommodates 13 writers.

There is also a patio area outside the press box that is above the existing stands along the first and third-base lines. It is used for receptions and other events throughout the year.

Two ticket booths, concession stands with an adjoining picnic area, and enlarged restrooms make the facility easily accessible and fan-friendly. Reserved seats were also added to the grandstand. A grand stairway leading from the McFadden parking lot to the main entrance is an added feature from a convenience and aesthetic aspect.

The players also realize improvements, as four batting cages have been constructed beyond the right-field fence. The dugouts have been almost doubled in length and width. And the players have a newly renovated locker room and lounge.

Prior to 2005, PawVision, the giant replay screen that was used in the [[Memorial Stadium (Clemson)|football stadium]] (1997–2004), was moved to Doug Kingsmore Stadium.

The facility is also equipped with a [[Super Sopper]], which cuts down on rainouts. Clemson is one of a few schools with this machine that removes water from the field.<ref name="facil">{{cite web |url=http://clemsontigers.cstv.com/school-bio/facilities-baseball.html |title=Doug Kingsmore Stadium |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110708212517/http://clemsontigers.cstv.com/school-bio/facilities-baseball.html |archive-date=2011-07-08 |access-date=March 14, 2011 |url-status=dead }}</ref>
