Fraser Field is a baseball park in Lynn, Massachusetts that has played host to many minor-league baseball teams over the years. The North Shore Navigators of the New England Collegiate Baseball League call Fraser Field home. In the springtime, Fraser Field is home to the Falcons of Fisher College. History General Electric, a large employer in the city, arranged floodlights on the site for a night game against Salem on June 24, 1927. The company has made the refuted claim that this was the first night game ever played. Fraser Field was built in 1940. Like Holman Stadium in Nashua, New Hampshire, Fraser was a project of the Works Progress Administration during the New Deal. The Lynn Sailors, an affiliate of the Seattle Mariners, played at Fraser from 1980 through 1982, changing its name to the Lynn Pirates when its affiliation changed to the Pittsburgh Pirates. Attendance was low and got lower. Fraser Field hosted only scholastic and city leagues until Jonathan Fleisig brought the Massachusetts Mad Dogs of the independent North Atlantic and Northeast leagues to Fraser Field from 1995 until 1999. By 1999, the concrete of the cantilevered roof had deteriorated so badly that the central seating section had to be roped off. The Mad Dogs announced a one-year hiatus from baseball and reopened in 2002 in Pittsfield, Massachusetts as the Berkshire Black Bears. The North Shore Spirit of the independent Can-Am League played at Fraser Field from 2003-2007. In 2003, Nicholas Lopardo invested about $2.5 million to revitalize the park. Lopardo's renovations included new scoreboards, seating, concessions, and clubhouses. The roof was repaired but cut back in size. When the Spirit folded, Lopardo removed the portable clubhouses and video scoreboard, but other improvements remained in place. In 2006 and 2007, the opening round of the Beanpot, a college baseball tournament featuring Boston College, Northeastern University, The University of Massachusetts, and Harvard University, was played at Fraser Field. In 2008, the North Shore Navigators of the New England Collegiate Baseball League began play at Fraser, having moved from Holyoke. The club won its first NECBL title in 2010. In 2012, the Navigators were acquired by Salvi Sports Enterprises, which switched the club to the newer Futures League with its focus on larger ballparks and professional management. In 2019, the roof had again deteriorated so as to endanger fans, and the Navigators began the season with the central seating
