On April 17, 2003, it was dedicated to Bucknell baseball coach Eugene Depew, a Bucknell alumnus (Class of 1971) and coach of the program from 1982–2012. Depew retired after the 2012 season as the longest serving coach of Bucknell baseball.[2][3]

In 2009, a FieldTurf surface was installed at the field.[4] Renovations continued in 2010, when a new backstop, dugouts, and fencing were installed.[2]
