Campbell's Field

Campbell's Field is a baseball stadium in Camden, New Jersey. It is home to the Camden Riversharks of the independent Atlantic League as well as to the Scarlet Raptors of the Camden campus of Rutgers University. As of 2004, official seating capacity is 6,425.

The park, located at Delaware and Penn Avenues, features a commanding view of the Benjamin Franklin Bridge connecting Camden with Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Views of the Philadelphia skyline are available from the right-field grandstand.

Most of the seating is in a single bowl, with a cross aisle separating lower box seats from upper box seats. There are sky boxes as well, and the upper deck also contains two grandstand areas for private parties.

The park is named for the Campbell Soup Company, which paid for naming rights. No word on whether broadcasters there might be inclined to call a high popup a "can of soup" instead of the traditional "can of corn".

On July 14, 2004, Campbell's Field hosted the Atlantic League All-Star Game.
