Theunissen Stadium<br />
CMU’s Theunissen Stadium is among the finest<br />
collegiate baseball facilities in the country.<br />
Opened in 2002, the 2,046-seat facility welcomes<br />
spectators and players alike with an impressive brick<br />
exterior. From there, players enjoy an expansive locker<br />
room and clubhouse area and a plush playing surface.<br />
The clubhouse features a lounge with several<br />
televisions and photographs depicting former CMU All-<br />
Americans and Chippewas who have gone on to play in<br />
the major leagues.<br />
Fans soak in the Chippewa game-day atmosphere from<br />
seating that hugs the field and provides excellent sight<br />
lines <strong>of</strong> the action. Located behind the backstop are 400<br />
chairback seats, while bleacher-style seating follows the<br />
first-base and third-base lines.<br />
A spacious press box, which includes two radio<br />
booths, overlooks home plate and assists the local and<br />
regional media in their coverage <strong>of</strong> the Chippewas.<br />
Bullpens are located adjacent to the dugouts and<br />

cages have been constructed behind the first-base<br />
grandstand.<br />
