Back to fictional parks for now, with
Estadio Baudilio Diaz
The original model by Grand Jota can be found here:

The park is named after Baudilio Diaz, better known to American fans as Bo Diaz, who was inducted into the Venezuelan Baseball Hall of Fame in 2006, played for the Leones del Caracas in the Venezuelan Winter League every year from 1972 until his untimely death in 1990. An interesting fact about Diaz, which I'm just going to crib directly from Wikipedia:
Quote:

Díaz was part of an extremely unlikely event spanning thirteen years. On January 6, 1973, he caught for minor league pitcher Urbano Lugo, who threw a no-hitter as the Leones del Caracas defeated the Tiburones de La Guaira, 6–0. Thirteen years later, on January 24, 1986, Díaz was the catcher for another no-hitter in a 4–0 Caracas' victory over La Guaira. This time, the pitcher was major leaguer Urbano Lugo, Jr., son of the elder Lugo.
