Alex Box Stadium, Former baseball stadium in Baton Rouge, United States

Alex Box Stadium was a baseball stadium in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, United States. It served as the home field for the LSU Tigers baseball team and was located across the street from Tiger Stadium, which was visible in right field.

The ballpark was built in 1938 at a cost of $50,000 and hosted the New York Giants for spring training in 1938 and 1939. It remained LSU's home field until 2008, when it was replaced by a new stadium to the south.

The right-field fence featured a large billboard called The Intimidator, displaying the eight years in which LSU won the College World Series. This billboard was a visible landmark for fans and a point of pride for the team.

The stadium no longer exists, so visitors cannot access the site. The area is now occupied by a new stadium with the same name, located a short distance to the south.

The stadium was named after Simeon Alex Box, an LSU letterman who was killed in North Africa during World War II. After the stadium was dismantled, its remnants were sold to fans as souvenirs.
