Beiden Field was originally built for the Fresno State collegiate team, but doubled as a professional venue from 1998-2001 while the Fresno Grizzlies were awaiting their new downtown ballpark to be completed. The ballpark is located on the campus, right next door to the team's football stadium. While the park was originally constructed in 1966, it underwent significant renovations in 1983. The main seating bowl is a large concrete structure featuring all individual fold down seats. In addition, there are two large bleacher sections. Certainly Beiden Field must have made for an adequate temporary facility for the Grizzlies. The ballpark is named after the long time coach of the Fresno State Bulldogs.
