One thing I think would make it look even better would be to paint or put new maroon seats in the baseball side and paint the football bleachers maroon.
The original turf was replaced in early 2010.

I am under the impression that the seats at Davis Park have remained blue as an homage to the Pikeville Cubs minor league baseball team which played there.

Next on the wish list would be a new pressbox. I believe that is something that is due for an upgrade after 20 years of the current one.

I watched the Pikeville Brewers and Pikeville Cubs from those seats back in the day. I still have a team signed Brewers ball with Chris Bosio and Billy Joe Robidoux on it.. How many times has Pikeville replaced their turf now? It seems to be 3-4. Am I wrong?

I agree a new press box is overdue. Adding some fresh maroon paint to the bleachers would look great with everything else.

I'm thinking this is the third time Westside. UPike and PHS both using it through the years has taken its toll.
