HoHoKam Stadium, Baseball stadium in Mesa, Arizona, US
HoHoKam Stadium is a baseball facility in Mesa with seating for around 12,600 people and features one of the largest digital scoreboards in the spring training league. The venue includes both covered seating areas and open sections designed to provide shade and comfort for spectators.
The facility opened in 1997 after the previous building on this site was torn down. It then served as the spring training home for a major league team until they relocated in 2013.
The stadium is named for the Hohokam people, who lived in the Mesa area from about AD 1 to the mid-15th century. The earlier spelling HoHoKam appeared in the park's name until it was changed to Hohokam. The name Dwight W. Patterson Field, added in 1991, carried over to the 1997 ballpark.
The venue is accessible via several major roads, and parking is available throughout the grounds for visitors. Food and beverages are sold at multiple stands, and shaded seating areas help make watching comfortable during hot Arizona afternoons.
The scoreboard at Hohokam Stadium measures 12 by 16 feet (3.7 by 4.9 m), the largest in the Cactus League. The stadium is also known as Dwight W. Patterson Field, a name given to the earlier 1976 ballpark in 1991 and carried over to the 1997 building.
