Great American Ballpark is equipped with many innovative features. This stadium is equipped with one of the largest scoreboards in baseball today. There is also a separate scoreboard incorporated into the left field wall to keep spectators up to the minute on other games that are going on around the country. For homeruns, there are two large smokestacks and a misting system that will send fireworks shooting into the sky when a homerun is hit.
