  • Pensacola Bayfront Stadium Named Baseballparks.Com's Ballpark of The
    For immediate release Pensacola Bayfront Stadium named Baseballparks.com’s Ballpark of the Year The 2012 season for the Pensacola Blue Wahoos has been unbelievably eventful. This is the first year of affiliated Minor League baseball in the city, so the team was brand new. One of the sport’s most electric players, base-stealing phenom Billy Hamilton, is playing for the Blue Wahoos. The team has drawn a remarkable 300,000 fans this year. Even a hurricane came calling in the season’s final week. And now there’s another noteworthy event. Pensacola’s new ballpark has been named Ballpark of the Year for 2012 by Baseballparks.com. Site webmaster Joe Mock made the announcement today. It’s the 13th straight year the site has presented such an award. The honor is awarded annually to the new baseball stadium with the best combination of superior design, attractive site selection and fan amenities. The plaque representing the award will be presented by Mock at a Blue Wahoos home game in April of next season. The facilities vying for the award this year include all new parks in pro baseball, and those that were essentially rebuilt. The three major contenders were all in the state of Florida, and interestingly were all designed by the same architecture firm. “The architects at Populous should be very proud of their facilities that opened this year,” Mock said. “They designed the incredibly impressive spring-training park and complex in Lee County, Florida for the Red Sox. They were also the architects for one of the most ambitious sports facilities ever built, Marlins Park.
