Part of the dugouts are covered by retractable roofs. The roofs must be retracted during games, and any fly ball that hits the retracted roof and bounces back is not considered a foul ball until it lands in foul territory.
The stadium is accessible within walking distance north west of Xinzhuang Station of Taipei Metro.
