Info
Sahlen Field (formerly Pilot Field, North AmeriCare Park, Downtown Ballpark, Dunn Tire Park and Coca-Cola Field) is a 16,907-seat baseball park in Buffalo, New York which hosted its first regular season baseball game on April 14, 1988, as the tenants of the facility, the Buffalo Bisons, defeated the Denver Zephyrs, 1–0.HOK Sport (now known as Populous) designed the park as one of the first retro-classic ballparks. This concept featured classic and distinctive architecture, a grass, baseball-specific design, and a location within the downtown core. The same firm would bring this concept to the major leagues four years later with Oriole Park at Camden Yards.
