Carleton baseball has called Mel Taube Field its on-campus home since the facility was originally constructed for the 2004 season. Thanks to significant support from Carleton alumni,
“The Taube” has undergone significant improvements since the Knights debuted on their current diamond. It has a fully irrigated, natural grass surface that is complimented by the beautiful surrounding scenery of the Cowling Arboretum. Currently one of the top college fields in Minnesota, the on-campus facility features twin 70' batting cages, four bullpen mounds, 30' foul poles and fully enclosed press box above the main bleachers.
A symmetrical park, Mel Taube Field has dimensions of 340' down the lines and 380' to center.
