Neuroscience Group Field at Fox Cities Stadium (originally called Fox Cities Stadium) is a baseball park in Appleton, Wisconsin. It is primarily used for baseball, and is the home field of the Wisconsin Timber Rattlers, a Midwest League team which functions as the Class A minor league baseball affiliate of the Milwaukee Brewers. Since 2000, it has also hosted the NCAA Division III College World Series. The stadium was built in 1995, and now holds 5,900 people. It is also the host of the Wisconsin Interscholastic Athletic Association High School Spring Baseball Championship.

History

On March 9, 2007, Time Warner Cable, which provides TV and internet service to the local area and broadcasts Timber Rattlers games on their local cable sports channel, signed a 10-year naming rights deal.[4] Terms of the deal were not disclosed. In December of 2013 Time Warner opted out of the final three years of the deal. In January 2014 Neuroscience Group, a local neurology practice, reached a 10-year deal for naming rights. Terms of the deal were not disclosed.[5]

Renovations

In November 2012 the stadium began a major renovation that was completed in 2013. This allows for functions such as weddings or large meetings on a year-round basis.[6]
