Opened--2001
August 4, 2001--Charleston Alley Cats 4, Lakewood Blue Claws 3
South Atlantic League--A
The newest park in New Jersey is GPU Energy Park located in Lakewood. It is the home of the Phillies single A team. With almost 5000 seats the BlueClaws are smashing attendance records for the South Atlantic League because of summer tourists who come to the Jersey shore for fun in the sun and can now take in a game. There was no sun when I visited GPU. The game was delayed two hours because of rain and did not start until 9:00.
Stadium Rating : B
