Field of Dreams

Updated April 11, 2010

The Field of Dreams is a project to provide Oakland Tech with Baseball and Softball home fields on the Carter Middle School campus at 45th and Webster, just two blocks from Tech. Historically, the baseball teams have played at Bushrod, and the softball team plays at Mosswood. Both sites are remote from Tech and make getting to practices and games a chore for everyone — players, coaches, fans, parents ….

The Field of Dreams has two phases, and will cost 1.2 million dollars. Phase one, the creation of the baseball diamond, broke ground on September 8, 2007 and the Bulldogs began baseball play in April of 2008. Installation of the softball field and extensive upgrade of the overall space will be the focus of Phase 2.
