Alliant Energy Field

originally Riverview Stadium

Alliant Energy Field (formerly Riverview Stadium) has hosted the Clinton franchise of the Midwest League since the team joined MWL predecessor Mississippi-Ohio Valley League in 1954. The facility was new in 1937, and had a significant reconstruction before the 2006 season. The name change took effect on March 15, 2002.
