LoanMart Field
History
LoanMart Field opened in 1993 in Rancho Cucamonga, California, originally as The Epicenter, providing the Rancho Cucamonga Quakes with a ballpark that has become one of the most enduring and beloved venues in California League history. The 6,615-seat stadium is situated at the base of the San Gabriel Mountains, and the snow-capped peaks visible beyond the outfield on winter and early spring evenings create one of the most striking visual backdrops in minor league baseball. The stadium name has changed through multiple naming rights deals, but the Quakes identity and the mountain views have remained constants.
The ballpark was built during the early 1990s wave of minor league construction and was designed to serve the rapidly growing Inland Empire population. Rancho Cucamonga, a city in San Bernardino County that has grown from a small agricultural community into a bustling suburb of over 180,000 people, provided a ready-made audience of families seeking affordable entertainment. The stadium's family-friendly amenities, including a speed pitch area, playground, and extensive group facilities, have been central to the franchise's consistent attendance success.
The Quakes serve as the Single-A affiliate of the Los Angeles Dodgers, and the franchise has hosted some of the most exciting young talent in the Dodgers' system. The Quakes name references the earthquakes for which Southern California is famous — the San Andreas Fault runs through the region — and the playful seismic branding has been popular with fans. LoanMart Field's proximity to Dodger Stadium, roughly 40 miles west, allows Dodgers front office personnel to easily scout and evaluate their prospects, making the venue an important component of the organization's player development infrastructure.
LoanMart Field has aged with character, benefiting from periodic renovations that have modernized amenities while preserving the intimate atmosphere that makes the venue a favorite among California League fans. The ballpark's longevity in the competitive Southern California entertainment market demonstrates the enduring appeal of minor league baseball when the facility is well-maintained and the experience is consistently enjoyable.
