Shipley Field, Baseball stadium at University of Maryland, College Park, United States

The baseball field features a seating capacity of 2,500 spectators and measures 320 feet down the left field line and 325 feet down the right field line.

Originally dedicated as Shipley Field in 1956 to honor former baseball coach Burton Shipley, the stadium received its current name Bob Smith Stadium in 2010.

Located at 4122 Fieldhouse Drive within the University of Maryland campus, the stadium underwent FieldTurf surface installations and drainage system improvements in 2015.

The stadium served as a temporary home for the Bowie Baysox professional baseball team during their 1994 season while maintaining its primary role as Maryland Terrapins' field.
