Fishbaugh and Rike Fields
Fishbaugh Field, named after former legendary Otterbein baseball coach Dick Fishbaugh, plays home to the Cardinal baseball team. Nestled back on the north end of campus, this field is equipped with home and away dugouts, a large storage shed, a press box sitting over the home dugout, bullpens down each foul line, newly-installed grandstands behind home plate, bleachers down the right-field line, and a large hill down the left-field line where Otterbein students frequently gather to take in a game!
The Otterbein softball field is nestled back on the north end of campus behind the Clements Recreation Center. The field is equipped with both home and visitor dugouts, bleachers down the left-field line. In addition, bullpens down the right and left-field lines were recently installed.

⚾️ Fishbaugh Field
Fishbaugh Field, named after legendary coach Dick Fishbaugh, plays home to our highly reputable baseball program and is nestled behind the Rike Center on the northern-most point of campus. This unique setting has hosted multiple Ohio Athletic Conference Tournaments and created countless memories along the way.
Bleachers are positioned behind the backstop and a full press box, capable of seating 12-15, is located above the home dugout on the first base line. A brand-new fence around the perimeter and new home bullpen (with benches) were installed between 2020-21, while a batting cage resides beyond the centerfield fence.
🥎 Rike Field
The Otterbein Softball Field, behind the Clements Center and adjacent to baseball, serves as the home site for a program that has also racked up multiple OAC titles in recent memory. The venue received a pair of new bullpens (located just outside each dugout up the outfield lines) entering the spring of 2014 and has experienced its share of postseason play since.
A press box is located directly behind the backstop and sponsors grace the outfield walls from one foul pole to the other. Fans have the ability to set up around the entire perimeter as bleachers rest near home plate and up the lines, along with a spacious grass area in the outfield where you can bring your own seat!
