Tom Hughes Field

Looking in at the simple facilities at Northeast HS, Mar-2023.

A better look toward the home team dugout.

The announcer’s-eye view of the game.

• Location: 58 Avenue North at 16 Street, St. Petersburg, Fla. (map it using Google Maps)
• Opened: Unknown
• Home team: Northeast Vikings, Pinellas County Athletic Conference

The Vikings play at this simple field with eight-row bleachers on the first- and third-base side. There is a line-score scoreboard in left field, but no permanent press box. The announcer sets up a public address system for each game. There is a concession stand behind the first-base dugout.

At the start of the game I attended, the announcer referred to the facility as Tom Hughes Field, but there was no dedication plaque evident. I am guessing that Hughes once coached the baseball team.
