Forest Grove High School is a part of the Pacific Conference. The Pacific Conference features a mix of expansive outfields, sharp corner angles, and mostly natural grass fields. It rewards teams who play clean baseball, communicate effectively, and understand situational nuance. While there’s no extreme outlier park like Jesuit in the Metro, each field presents its own quirks—whether it’s Century’s deep backstop or Sherwood’s cavernous CF.
Field Location: 1401 Nichols Ln, Forest Grove, OR 97116
Left Field 318 ft.
Right Field 315 ft.
Center Field 370 ft.
Backstop 44 ft.
Strategy: Control the Middle
- CF and both alleys play slightly long—corner OF must cut angles quickly.
- INF must be sharp—balls take unpredictable hops on natural grass.
- Backstop gives up moderate passed ball movement—pitchers must stay locked in.
- OF communication on pop-ups is key to avoid bloopers and gaps.
Offensive Game Plan
- Target middle third of the field with low line drives.
- Use aggressive turns around first base to stretch hits.
- Emphasize aggressive baserunning and smart reads on throws.
