A home stadium for the Marshall University baseball team will become a reality in a short 17 months, Athletic Director Mike Hamrick announced Saturday morning at a groundbreaking ceremony inside the Chris Cline Athletic Complex.
“We will be playing baseball in Huntington, West Virginia instead of Charleston, instead of Beckley, instead of Chillicothe, instead of wherever,” Hamrick said.
