Baseball facility to help improve athletic setting at UAPB

Pine Bluff native and current Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim outfielder Torii Hunter recently donated $500,000 to UAPB toward the construction of a $9.5 million baseball complex, to be built north of Golden Lion Stadium off of Highway 79.

UAPB currently plays its home baseball games at Regional Park and Taylor Field in Pine Bluff. However, the two facilities are not Division I caliber. UAPB baseball coach Michael Bumpers and Perkins met last summer and Bumpers was enthused about the possibility of a new facility.
