Hawkins Field in June 2007

Hawkins Field is a baseball stadium in Nashville, Tennessee. It is the home field of the Vanderbilt Commodores college baseball team. The stadium opened in 2002 adjacent to Vanderbilt Stadium and Memorial Gymnasium and holds 2,027 people.

The Vanderbilt athletics site describes its "brick and wrought-iron fence design". Its left field wall is 35 feet high, a comparable height to the legendary Green Monster at Fenway Park. Memorial Gymnasium is behind the left field fence, and Vanderbilt Stadium's east bleachers are adjacent to the third base stands.

On May 27, 2007 Hawkins Field was selected as a regional host site for the 2007 NCAA Division I Baseball Tournament. A new scoreboard was erected, and new bleachers added in right field to bring the capacity to near 3,700 for the tournament.
