Goss Stadium at Coleman Field is a college baseball stadium in Corvallis, Oregon. It is the home venue of the Oregon State University baseball team, the Oregon State Beavers. The stadium was build in 1907, originally known simply as Coleman Field. A major remodel was undertaken in 1999 due to a $2.3 million donation by John and Eline Goss, resulting in the renaming. The official stadium capacity is 2,000, but with the success of the baseball team in the 2005 & 2006 seasons, the university has been forced to bring in temporary bleachers resulting in crowds exceeding 3,000.
A state-of-the-art scoreboard was installed during the summer of 2006 after the Beavers' national championship win. Plans to add more permanent seating by the 2008 season is also underway with record breaking crowds expected for the upcoming seasons.
