Bailey-Brayton Field

Bailey-Brayton Field

Bailey-Brayton Field is a college baseball stadium on the campus of Washington State University in Pullman. It is the home field of the Washington State Cougars of the Pac-10 conference.

The stadium's seating capacity is 3,500 and opened for baseball in 1980 as Bailey Field. Lights were added in 1984 and the field was renamed in 2000 to honor longtime Cougar baseball coach, Chuck "Bobo" Brayton.

The infield surface is now FieldTurf, which replaced the natural grass (and dirt) prior to the 2004 season. [http://wsucougars.cstv.com/sports/m-basebl/spec-rel/102703aaa.html] The only portions of the infield that remain dirt are the home plate area and the pitcher's mound. The basepaths and the "skin" portion of the infield are FieldTurf, colored crimson, while the outfield remains natural grass.

This combination of FieldTurf and natural grass is similar to the other Pac-10 ballparks in the Northwest, Husky Ballpark in Seattle and Goss Stadium in Corvallis.
