RE/MAX Field, Baseball stadium in Edmonton, Canada
RE/MAX Field is a baseball stadium in Edmonton situated near the North Saskatchewan River with capacity for around 9,200 spectators. The facility combines natural grass with artificial turf on the playing surface and offers seating options ranging from ground level to upper areas throughout the venue.
Opened in 1995, the stadium replaced the 60-year-old John Ducey Park (formerly Renfrew Park) on the same site in Rossdale. Telus Communications bought the naming rights in September 1995 on a 14-year deal, and the venue kept the Telus Field name until the 2016 season, when it became Edmonton Ballpark. In May 2017 the Edmonton Prospects acquired naming rights and renamed it RE/MAX Field.
The stadium hosts local baseball teams and draws fans who enjoy watching the sport in an outdoor setting throughout the season. It has become a gathering place where residents come together to follow games and support the city's baseball tradition.
The venue offers various seating options from ground-level suites to upper-level boxes, plus a VIP dining area with a full restaurant. When visiting, keep in mind the location near the river and how weather and wind can affect outdoor viewing conditions.
The centre-field batter's eye is a 34-foot (10 m) green wall, which in 2008 ranked as the third-highest wall in professional baseball. Only Matthew LeCroy, Michael Cuddyer and Todd Sears have hit home runs over it. The rest of the outfield measures 12 feet (3.7 m) around.
