Lide Baseball Stadium Introduction
Located on Zhongyi Road in Kaohsiung City, Lide Baseball Stadium was established during the Japanese colonial period. In 1974, it was renamed to commemorate the Lide Little League team winning the world championship at the 28th Little League World Series. It has a long history and is a shared passionate memory for baseball fans in southern Taiwan. The stadium has 9,500 seats and is the only stadium in Taiwan with a full infield surrounded by an iron net, allowing spectators to have face-to-face views of the players. The outfield stands are covered, providing shade and rain protection. In preparation for the 2009 World Games, the city government upgraded the stadium's facilities to accommodate the softball events and has plans to redesign it into an international standard stadium, enhancing the multifunctional benefits of this urban baseball venue.
