Alliant Energy Field
Also home to the Clinton LumberKings, the Seattle Mariners' Class A affiliation, the Saints' baseball team is privileged to use picturesque Alliant Energy Field as one of its home venues during the regular season.

The historic ballpark was built in 1937 and has a capacity of 3,000 fans. Many Major League Baseball players have played at Alliant Energy Field on their way to the professional ranks including all-stars Grady Sizemore (Cleveland), Jason Bay  (New York NL) and Ian Kinsler (Texas).

This year, many first-round selections in the 2009 amateur draft have visited Clinton, including Mariners' shortstop Nick Franklin (27th overall), Los Angeles Angels phenom Mike Trout (25th overall) and hard-throwing St. Louis Cardinals prospect Shelby Miller (19th overall).

The Saints occasionally use Camanche High School as a secondary field if there is a scheduling conflict, with that field located in nearby Camanche, Iowa.
