The stadium was made possible by a private gift from Hoyt Pardee (UCLA '41), a classmate of Jackie Robinson. Without Hoyt, the stadium would not be a reality.
Set along trees in a natural environment, Jackie Robinson Stadium can host as many as 1,250 fans in stadium-style seats, installed prior to the 2006 season. It can also accommodate many more on grass slopes above each dugout and in the terrace area beyond center field. Each seat offers an excellent view of the symmetrical field. The eight-foot high fences are 330 feet from home plate down the lines, 365 feet in the power alleys and 390 feet in straight-away center field. A warning track surrounds the grass field. The padded backstop, built into the base of the stands, is 55 feet from home plate, providing adequate foul territory behind the plate.
Two cement walk-in dugouts provide comfortable accommodations for both teams, and large bullpen areas are located down the foul lines adjacent to the dugouts. Behind the center field fence is a fully-electronic scoreboard, providing line score, count, number of outs and other information about the game.
