Metalworking Industry Purchased Naming Rights
Sanjo City is in the middle of Niigata Prefecture, famous as a production of superior quality rice and Japanese sake. Therefore Sanjo Sports Park, including the baseball stadium is surrounded by huge rice fields.
But the major industry of Sanjo City is historically metalworking, so since 2008 the naming rights holders of this stadium have been the local metalworking and machinery companies based in the city, first Sanjo Machine Works, and then Pearl Metal Co.
The stadium is mainly used for High School Baseball, Collegiate Baseball Summer League and the other amateur baseball games.
Sanjo Stadium is the home of Niigata Albirex Baseball Club of Independent Baseball Challenge League.
Eastern League and Western League of NPB also host some regular season games at this stadium.
