Baseball Park is home to Baseball in Western Australia, Australia. It was built in 2004, with a seating capacity of about 500 and standing room for a further 3,500. This is the first baseball-exclusive stadium in Perth since the demolition of Parry Field in the mid 1990's. Baseball Park is the venue of the 2007 Claxton Shield, which starts on January 19 to January 27, 2007.
