Mid-American Conference tournament

From 2012 through 2019, the ballpark hosted the Mid-American Conference baseball tournament, held in late May. In its most recent setup, the top six teams in the MAC earned berths to the tournament, which used a double-elimination format over five days. The winner of the tournament earned the conference's automatic bid to the NCAA Division I baseball tournament. The 2020 tournament was also scheduled to be held at the ballpark from May 20 through 24, but was cancelled in March 2020 due to the coronavirus pandemic. In May 2020, the Mid-American Conference announced that the baseball tournament was one of eight conference tournaments that were eliminated for at least the next four seasons beginning in 2020–21.[8][9]
