Newberg High School

Newberg 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: 2400 E Douglas Ave, Newberg, OR 97132

Left Field 316 ft.

Right Field 320 ft.

Center Field 365 ft.

Backstop 32 ft.

Strategy: Fast Turf, Tight Window

  • Short backstop gives catchers a chance to smother mistakes—less room for error by baserunners.
  • Even dimensions put pressure on defenders to be precise—cutoff timing is critical.
  • Pitchers should work efficiently—no part of the park clearly favors hitters or pitchers.
  • OF must hold base runners to singles—limiting advancement is key.

Offensive Game Plan

  • Run pressure becomes critical—bunts, steals, and hit-and-run force defenders to make quick decisions.
  • Use line drives to split gaps, especially with fast runners at the top of the lineup.
  • Look for high-contact, high-IQ at-bats to keep pressure on tight defensive spacing.

Century High School

Century 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: 2000 SE Century Blvd, Hillsboro, OR 97123

Left Field 309 ft.

Right Field 332 ft.

Center Field 350 ft.

Backstop 54 ft.

Strategy: Beware the Backstop

  • Largest backstop in the conference—missed pitches turn into free 90s fast.
  • LF is short—righty pull hitters must be shaded and pitchers should avoid leaving pitches inside.
  • Defensive communication between C, P, and MIF is essential on passed balls and bunts.
  • RF is deeper—watch lefties with warning track power.

Offensive Game Plan

  • Encourage righties to turn on the ball and drive it into short LF.
  • Leverage the deep backstop with aggressive steals, delayed steals, and hit-and-run plays.
  • Alert baserunners should anticipate overthrows and advance on every bobble.

McMinnville High School

McMinnville 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: 1175 NE 19th St, McMinnville, OR 97128

Left Field 335 ft.

Right Field 330 ft.

Center Field 373 ft.

Backstop 41 ft.

Strategy: Play Clean, Stay Alert

  • Generous alleys make for a true hitter’s park—OF must back up plays and take smart routes.
  • Corners play deep; 3B/1B must be aware of extra base chances on foul ground plays.
  • Pitchers should live low in the zone and keep hitters off-balance.
  • Backstop distance allows for moderate aggressive baserunning.

Offensive Game Plan

  • Power hitters should look to split the gaps—long alleys reward well-struck balls.
  • Balance small-ball with slugging potential; both approaches can succeed here.
  • Be heads-up on dirt ball reads and secondary leads to pressure the defense.

Sherwood High School

Sherwood 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: 18800 SW Haide Rd, Sherwood, OR 97140

Left Field 322 ft.

Right Field 322 ft.

Center Field 400 ft.

Backstop 39 ft.

Strategy: Respect the Center Gap

  • CF is the deepest in the league—position outfielders with a priority on range and communication.
  • Plays hit to center tend to hang longer; pitchers can challenge hitters up in the zone.
  • Corner OF need to take aggressive angles to cut off gaps.
  • Backstop is short-to-medium, so catchers must be sharp, but runners won’t get many freebies.

Offensive Game Plan

  • Hitters should aim to drive the ball up the middle or opposite field—triples are very possible in the alley.
  • Take extra bases aggressively—outfielders have longer throws in from deep CF.
  • Use speed and conditioning to wear down the defense, especially in late innings.

Left Field 330 ft.

Strategy: Manage the RF Line

  • Some days the gaps stretch—prep for extra-base threats.

Offensive Game Plan

  • Righties to LF, lefties to RF—short corners reward good barrel contact.

Left Field 319 ft.

Right Field 283 ft.

Center Field 330 ft.

Strategy: High Alert in RF

  • IF and OF must shift heavily to right. Shallow RF fly balls can be HRs.
  • Pitch away—work off-speed and outside zones to neutralize RF pull hitters.
  • Prioritize fast transitions and crisp throws—turf demands quickness.
  • Wild pitches rarely advance runners but requires constant blocking vigilance.

Offensive Game Plan

  • Righties go oppo—use RF gap and carry to their advantage. Fly balls can reward.
  • Lefties—fly balls to RF can be instant damage—identify wind patterns.
  • Jesuit’s turf allows drag bunts and well-placed rollers to become instant base hits.

Left Field 313 ft.

Right Field 299 ft.

Center Field 349 ft.

Backstop 30 ft.

Strategy: Protect the Corners

  • Defensively pitch inside to lefties to reduce pull power. OF should shade to RF accordingly.
  • Ball will get to the wall fast; infielders must sprint to cut positions.

  • MI should react fast, stay low—bounce skips pick up speed on turf.

Offensive Game Plan

  • Encourage hard contact to RF for left-handed hitters—easy distance and scoring potential.
  • Move runners with high contact rates; look for hustle doubles and poor alignment.
  • Use bunts, slaps, and hit-and-runs to force miscommunication.
