Linda K. Epling Stadium is a baseball field in Beckley, West Virginia. It opened in 2010. The field was built by the Epling family after it sold out its interests in the coal business. The stadium seats 2,500. It is used by the West Virginia Miners of the Prospect League and the WVU Tech Golden Bears.[1] The facility has also been the home to select games of the Marshall University baseball team from 2010 to 2018, and was the home for select West Virginia University games in 2012 and 2013.

The stadium is about 40miles from the Donald M. Epling Stadium, WVU Tech's former baseball facility in Montgomery, which was also funded by the family.
