History
On August 19, 2011, the Indiana University Board of Trustees approved plans for a new baseball/softball complex. These new fields would be located just north of Assembly Hall, near the intersection of the 45/46 bypass and Fee Lane. The new baseball field would replace Sembower Field, which had been the Hoosier's home field since 1951. On February 15, 2012, Indiana University announced that the new baseball field would be named after Bart Kaufman, CEO of the Indianapolis based Kaufman Financial Corporation, and Indiana Baseball alumnus. This announcement came after Kaufman pledged $2.5 million to the construction of a new stadium.

Construction began on Bart Kaufman Field in May 2012, and was finished in March 2013; the stadium was formally dedicated on April 26th of that year. The Hoosiers' first game in the stadium was March 20, 2013, with a 15-1 win over Miami of Ohio.
