Английская Википедия:Harry & David Field
Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox stadium Шаблон:Location map Шаблон:Location map Harry & David Field is a baseball park in the northwest United States, located in Medford, Oregon.
Adjacent to U.S. Cellular Community Park (now known as Lithia & Driveway Fields), it hosts youth and high school baseball, primarily the American Legion Medford Mustangs and the Medford Rogues, an independent collegiate wood bat team. Named for the Harry & David Corporation, which has its world headquarters located just south of the ballpark, it was the brainchild of local businessman Gary Miller.
Opened Шаблон:Years or months ago in 2005, the ballpark replaced the demolished Miles Field, which was about a mile (1.6 km) up Highway 99, now a Walmart. Construction of the ballpark was never completed,[1] and it is off-limits to professional teams under an agreement reached between the stadium and the city, which allows only amateur baseball and other community events.[2]
It was initially thought that Harry & David Field was a part of the U.S. Cellular Community Park complex, but has been since determined that it is a separate entity. From 2012 to 2013, the stadium underwent a major renovation and expansion to accommodate the new Medford Rogues. The city's last minor league team, the Southern Oregon Timberjacks of the Class A-Short Season Northwest League, arrived in 1979 as the Medford A's. After 21 seasons at Miles Field, they left in October 1999 for British Columbia and became the Vancouver Canadians.[3]
The elevation of the natural grass playing field is approximately Шаблон:Convert above sea level. It is aligned nearly due north (north by east); the recommended orientation (home plate to center field) is east-northeast.[4]
