The Rhodes Baseball program has always had one of the finest playing fields in the SCAC and with the current renovations the facility will also be one of the finest in SCAC if not in all of Division III. This project is the effort of many people at the college and through generous donations from the parents of current players, alumni and other outside donations.
The Rhodes Baseball facility is getting its second major upgrade in the past three years, with the addition of a locker room and offices for the coaching staff. We broke ground on the locker room the first week of December 2010 and the entire project is set to be completed in February of 2011.
The highlights of the 2010-2011 project include:
- 44 wood lockers
- Laundry facility
- Showers
- 2 offices on the second floor
- Lounge area with couches on the second floor

We broke ground on the project in the beginning of July and will continue until the project is complete. Most of the work will be finished by the end of August.
