Yale Field is a stadium in West Haven, Connecticut, just across the city line with New Haven, Connecticut. It is primarily used for baseball, and is the home field of the New Haven County Cutters Canadian-American Association of Professional Baseball minor league baseball team and Yale University baseball team. It originally opened in 1927. It holds 5,000 people. New adjustments and renovations are being added to the field each year. The Yale University Bulldogs play at Yale Field from March to May. The New Haven County Cutters used the field from May to September until they folded after the 2007 season.

Yale Field was also the home of the New Haven Ravens during the franchise's time in the city from 1994 to 2003. It hosted the 1998 Double-A All-Star Game, and was the site of the Ravens' 2000 Eastern League championship. The team was sold and moved to Manchester, New Hampshire, where it became the New Hampshire Fisher Cats in 2004. During the Ravens' playoff games in their final season, all fans were admitted to the park for free. The Cutters began playing at the stadium in May 2004.

The concourse underneath the stands is lined with the names of famous players who made appearances at the stadium. These include Babe Ruth, Lou Gehrig, Ted Williams, Todd Helton, and Yale first baseman George H.W. Bush.
