Kentucky’s new baseball stadium has a new name.
The new stadium, located near the UK football practice fields and Kroger Field, will be known as “Kentucky Proud Park.”
The moniker was given to it by Kentucky Farm Bureau, which entered into a 15-year agreement with JMI Sports for the naming rights.
The new baseball stadium name was approved by the university’s Board of Trustees on Friday morning at nearby Kroger Field, which underwent a similar re-branding last year. Specifics of the deal were not disclosed by UK.
JMI Sports purchased UK Athletics’ multimedia rights in 2014 for $210 million over 15 years.
