NCAA® Men's College World Series - Omaha, Nebraska

Built in 1948, the site of the Men's Division I College World Series since 1950 was originally called Omaha Municipal Stadium.

Johnny Rosenblatt (1907-1979) whose name graces this ballpark, played amateur, semipro, and professional baseball before entering a life of public service.  He located this hilltop site and pushed for its construction.  It opened in 1948, and two years later, attracted the NCAA College World Series.  Rosenblatt Stadium has won the hearts of those who have attended the College World Series.

Johnny, ebullient and upbeat, served as mayor of Omaha from 1954 to 1961, but was stricken with Parkinson’s Disease in the prime of life.  Omaha’s Rosenblatt Stadium, also home to the Omaha Royals, has carried his name since 1964.  Thanks to the dedication of the city of Omaha and countless benefactors, the stadium has evolved into a representation of what college baseball is all about -- teamwork, dedication and camaraderie. 

Millions of dollars in stadium improvements has made the "Blatt" loved by coaches and fans alike. To read about stadium improvements over the years, click here »  More will come.

The Road to Omaha sculpture, standing in front of Rosenblatt, was a gift to the City of Omaha and Series fans from College World Series of Omaha, Inc., the local organizing committee. The "Road to Omaha" sculpted in 1999 by Omaha artist John Lajba, serves as a permanent testimonial to the enduring sports tradition.
