The stadium is located on the site of former John Cunningham Stadium, which was demolished in 2012. The new field is named after former San Diego baseball coach John Cunningham.[1] Cunningham was the Torero head coach for 34 seasons. The new stadium is named after Ron and Alexis Fowler, who provided a substantial portion of the $13 million needed to build the ballpark.
The capacity is expandable to 3,000 spectators for postseason or special event play.[2]
Fowler Park opened on February 15, 2013, hosting a 3-game series between University of San Diego and their cross town opponents from San Diego State University.
Fowler Park features a grand entry archway detailed in 16th century Spanish Renaissance architecture. The McGee Family Entry Deck which gives spectators views of the entire ballpark. The ballpark features a 25'x16' digital ICG scoreboard. There are two luxury suites with indoor/outdoor seating, a press box area for radio/TV/game operations, public restrooms, concessions, and a ticket office. The Torero Deck, which sits on top of the clubhouse, features a synthetic turf miniature baseball field.
