Dunedin High School baseball Dunedin Stadium is a baseball field located in Dunedin, Florida. The stadium was built in 1990 and holds 5,510 people. It is the spring training home of the Toronto Blue Jays, as well as home to the Dunedin Blue Jays of the Class A Florida State League and the Dunedin High School Falcons baseball team. The stadium name reverted back from the name it had since 2004, Knology Park, when the naming agreement with Knology, a southeastern United States communications and entertainment company, expired on September 30, 2008. The original name of the stadium was Dunedin Stadium at Grant Field.

From 1977 until 1989, the Blue Jays played at Grant Field, which had a seating capacity of 3,417. Grant Field opened in 1930 and was named after the mayor of Dunedin who had donated the land. The first Toronto Blue Jays game ever was played there on March 11, 1977 when the Blue Jays beat the New York Mets 3-1.

In 1990, at a cost of approximately $2.4 million, the City of Dunedin built a new stadium called Dunedin Stadium at the same location as Grant Field. It had a capacity of 6,106. The actual playing field and team clubhouses did not change.

Dunedin Stadium is ranked by Sports Illustrated as one of the top five facilities to watch a Major League Baseball Spring Training game. Dunedin has been the only spring home for the Toronto Blue Jays since their inception in 1977.
