1 Baseball Field. Seating capacity for 7,053. Tifway Bermuda grass field.

C.E. "Pat" Olsen Field is located across from Kyle Field and has a permanent seating capacity of 7,053. Additional seating was completed prior to the 1994 season. The dimensions of the field are 330 feet down the foul lines, 375 to the power alleys and 400 feet to centerfield. The wooden fences around the outfield measure eight feet in height with the exception of centerfield, where the height is 20 feet. Beneath the grandstands are dressing facilities for both teams, a separate dressing room for the umpires, a modern training room and a groundskeeper's storage room.

A new indoor hitting facility was built down the left-field line that features batting cages and bullpens. A new state-of-the-art scoreboard, featuring a LED video board was unveiled in 2000. The scoreboard was the first on-campus, college-baseball scoreboard of its type in the United States. Other features include a major league metal halide lighting system. A 160-foot laminated vinyl tarpaulin covers the infield during inclement weather. Under the third base stands are the coaches' offices complete with a lounge area for players and families.
