Stadium
From 1936, the Ducks played baseball at Howe Field. After the university canceled baseball in 1981, the field was converted to use by the Ducks' women's softball team. Following the reinstatement of baseball in 2009 after 27 years as the only Pac-10 school without a baseball team, the university built a new baseball stadium, PK Park, in what was a parking lot adjacent to Autzen Stadium. The field is shared by the minor league Eugene Emeralds.
