Shipley Field has been the home of the Maryland baseball team since 1965. It is located right in the heart of the Maryland campus, in between Byrd Stadium and the Artificial Turf Facility. Currently, it has a seating capacity of 2,500. Its playing surface is Bermuda Grass and the dimensions are 320 down the left field line, 380 to center and 325 down the right field line.

In 1982, Shipley Field was the site of an exhibition game between the Terps and Earl Weaver's Baltimore Orioles. Eight years later, in 1990, the Soviet baseball team paid a visit to Shipley Field to take on the Terps in an exhibition series.

Shipley Field has been hosting night games since a set of permanent lights were installed prior to the 1994 season.

Shipley Field is named after legendary Terps' coach H. Burton Shipley, who was the Maryland skipper from 1924-1960.

The Terps have played well over the years at Shipley Field. The Terrapins are 419-247-6 (.628) all-time at Shipley Field and have had just four losing seasons in 37 years in the friendly confines.
