About the Ballpark and Its Events
M. L. “Tigue” Moore Field, commonly called Tigue Moore Field, has served as the Ragin’ Cajuns’ home since 1983. The original ballpark opened in 1978 as Moore Family Field, took the Tigue Moore name in 1995, and became M. L. “Tigue” Moore Field at Russo Park in 2017.
The former venue was demolished in July 2016, and the rebuilt ballpark reopened before February 2017. Its playing surface is a ProGrass Synthetic Turf System. The field measures 330 feet down each foul line, 375 feet to left-center and right-center, and 400 feet to center field. A Daktronics HD video board is also part of the facility.
The ballpark has hosted the Sun Belt Conference Baseball Tournament five times: in 1997, 2001, 2003, 2008, and 2013. It has also hosted NCAA Regionals in 2000, 2014, and 2016, plus an NCAA Super Regional in 2014.
