Marge Schott Stadium replaced Johnny Bench Field which was located just past these friendly confines. In its stellar history that ballpark and the University of Cincinnati would give way to future supertar Kevin Youkilis. Youkilis literally "killed it" in his 4 seasons at UC posting a whopping .407 batting average with 23 2B and 14 HR in his Sophomore year in 1999, and posting monster power numbers (21 2B, 19 HR, .352) in his junior year followed by an extraordinary 18 HR, .405 season in 2001... leading to his 8th round draft by the Boston Red Sox.
