Chesapeake Racetrack and Ballpark

The Crabitat is the name of the Baltimore Crabs' home field. The Crabitat is located within the partially submerged remains of a large crab of unknown origin, though the consensus among most experts is that the exterior shell is between 145 million - 160 million years old. The stadium itself is about 36,000 feet, with the playing field comprising 15,000 square feet on its own. About 8,000 square feet of the field is submerged in at least one foot of water.

History

The remains of the colossal crab which would later be converted into a professional-league blaseball stadium were discovered in a forgotten neighborhood in Baltimore in 1963. It is thought that the corpse had been lying there undisturbed since the late Cretaceous period, which would indicate that the crab was at least 79 million years old at the time of its death.
