Thurman Munson Memorial Stadium is a stadium in Canton, Ohio primarily used for baseball. The facility is named after former Major League Baseball player Thurman Munson, who grew up in Canton. The ballpark has a capacity of 5,700 people (as of 1996) and opened in 1989.

It is the former home of the Canton-Akron Indians, the Double-A minor league affiliate of the Cleveland Indians, which played at the ballpark from 1989 to 1996. The team was renamed the Akron Aeros and moved into their new ballpark in downtown Akron in 1997. When they moved out, the ballpark became the home of the Canton Crocodiles, a team of the independent Frontier League, through 2001. In 2002, the Crocodiles left the stadium and it became the home ballpark of the Canton Coyotes, also of the Frontier League. After one season Canton, the Coyotes moved to Columbia, Missouri and changed its name to the Mid-Missouri Mavericks.
