The Lake Erie Crushers will debut in just another week,and with them,the new All Pro Freight Stadium. However,the new ballpark’s already raising concerns due to its proximity to I-90.

According to the Cleveland Plain Dealer,the stadium authority will be adding a 25 foot high netting to the areas where I-90 comes the closest to the ballpark –about 500 feet away,covering some foul ground along the RF wall,and an extreme RF home run.
The new park will have a 5,000 seat capacity,including 2,600 box seats and 11 private suites. The Crushers are an independent Frontier League team,and will christen the new park with a 6 game homestand,starting with the Windy City Thunderbolts and Rockford Riverhawks as their 1st two opponents.
