}}Roy E. Lee Field at Simmons Baseball Complex is a baseball venue in Edwardsville, Illinois, United States. It is home to the SIU Edwardsville Cougars baseball team of the NCAA Division I Ohio Valley Conference.[1]

The facility, which has a capacity of 1,500 spectators, is named for SIUE's first baseball coach, Roy E. Lee.[2] The distance to the fences is 330 feet to right and left fields and 390 to center.[3]

In the offseason following the 2010 season, the locker rooms and dugouts were renovated.[4] Additionally, the field features an AstroTurf® GameDay Grass playing field, an electronic scoreboard, and a stand of pine trees in center field that acts as a batter's eye. The seating structure lies behind home plate and includes a covered grandstand of bleacher-style seating along with three rows of chairback seating closest to the field.[1]

In the summer of 2014, additional improvements were made with funding approved by the SIU Board of Trustees in February.[5] The outfield grass was replaced with the same AstroTurf® GameDay Grass as has been on the infield since 2011 to allow year-round practice and play. The outfield wall was also replaced, creating a symmetrical field.[1]
