The stadium is completely composed of natural grass with a dirt infield and dirt base paths. A 15-foot crushed rock warning track is in front of an eight-foot high outfield fence.

Renovations

Kamine Stadium has undergone two renovations since the turn of the century to better suit the Lafayette baseball program.

2003 Renovation

The baseball field was transformed from a simple baseball diamond to a baseball stadium. 500 permanent chairback seats were installed along with a press box to meet the needs for television, radio, newspaper, and public address announcers. Both the home and away dugouts were expanded by 20 feet.

2007 Renovation

The 2007 renovation was centered on the playing surface. An irrigation system was added, new sod and infield dirt was installed, and the pitcher's mound and home plate areas were rebuilt.[1]

gollark: Basically, a large bearing is placed in strong capitalistic fields. and communism is piped in from an external source.
gollark: Also, we need capital for our communistic power generators.
