Jackson's field isn't quite as nice as is used to be but it is still a pretty nice field.
Positives on Jackson's field- Decent Seating, Infield is very nice, Red windscreen makes the field look nice, the entire field is kept trimmed up and kept in good shape, Dirt is always nice, The bulpens aren't too bad either.
Negatives- Right on the road, Outfield isn't too great, Not much too look at beside the road and tall silos in right field.
Over all it isn't that bad of a field. As for the net above the plate, it saves a lot of cars from being hit which probably helps from hearing a lot of complaints lol
My opinion on some of the top fields in the area would be...
1. VA- Great facility, which it should be being a semi-pro stadium.
2.Warren- Unbelievable atmosphere with the tree's and pond. That set up with all the fields in Warren is VERY nice. The field is kept very nice also. Great place to watch a game.
3.Minford- They've put a lot of work into that field and it paid off. Plus it has lights. Very nice field.
Some not so good fields...
Gallia- That place is a mess, either there is water in the outfield or brown dead grass. It's about the size of a softball field. I know Coach Corvin puts a lot of effort too help keep that field up it's just located where it's going to flood just from the morning dew. It's sad to see a talented team play on such a bad field. Im sure once the new schools will be done they will have a great baseball field though.
Wellston- You might as well throw some grass on the beach and play there. The infield is a mess with that sand. The backstop is way too far back too. It is located in a good spot though, it just seems like they have no effort to make it nice though.
Portsmouth's field could be such a nice field if they could just do some work too it. I know it's old but that could be one of the best fields around with some work done too it.
Rock Hill- could also have one of the best field's around if the field wasn't cement. The brick set up is so nice but the field needs some work.
