Baseball's Fighting Irish, play here at Frank Eck Stadium... an intimate ballpark (compared to 80,000 seat Notre Dame Stadium), located on the southeast side of the campus. The facility seats 2,500 in a simple but elegant, permanent concrete and steel grandstand. The stadium replaced the old Jake Kline Field where the Fighting Irish used to play until 1988 when they started playing most of their games at the Single-A South Bend Silver Hawks' ballpark, Coveleski Regional Stadium.
