Facts and practical information

Bosse Field is a classic piece of Americana nestled in the heart of Evansville, Indiana. As one of the nation's oldest ballparks, this stadium has been a hub of activity since its opening in 1915. It's not just a place for sports fans; history buffs and architecture enthusiasts will also appreciate its storied past and distinctive design.

The field is perhaps best known for serving as the home of the Evansville Otters, a minor league baseball team. However, its claim to fame extends to the silver screen, as it was one of the primary filming locations for the beloved film "A League of Their Own," which immortalized the story of the All-American Girls Professional Baseball League.

Visitors to Bosse Field can enjoy a game in a setting that exudes the charm of early 20th-century baseball parks. The stadium's original brick façade and wooden grandstand seats are a rare sight in an era of modern, high-tech sports venues. With a seating capacity of 7,180, the atmosphere at Bosse Field is intimate yet vibrant, perfect for families and groups of friends looking to enjoy America's favorite pastime.
