Bond Money article mentions Rentschler is the second largest natural grass stadium in New England. If Gillette and Yale Bowl are artificial turf, and Rentschler is larger than Fenway, is this correct?

Google AI review says the biggest.

Not sure how baseball fields compare to football fields but there are a lot of baseball facilities.

The largest natural grass facility in New England is widely reported to be Rentschler Field in East Hartford, Connecticut.
Rentschler Field, primarily known as the home stadium for the UConn football team, is a 38,000-seat stadium that has hosted a variety of international sporting events and major music concerts since it opened in 2003.
Other large natural grass facilities in the region include:

• Revolution Training Center: The New England Revolution's $35-million training complex in Foxborough, MA, features three full-size natural grass fields, including one with a heating system, spanning a total of 226,500 square feet. The Patriots also have a separate hybrid grass practice field on the Gillette Stadium campus.
• Sagamore Golf Center: Located in North Hampton, NH, this facility boasts one of the largest natural grass driving range tees in New England, covering over 50,000 square feet.
• Golf Courses: Many extensive natural grass areas exist at New England's numerous golf clubs, such as TPC Boston in Norton, MA, and Montcalm Golf Club in Enfield, NH, which feature large, meticulously maintained bent grass putting and chipping greens.

What do they mean by larger, seating capacity? If so, that's probably Fenway. The Rent is less than 40K.

Fenway is 37,775. The Rent has 38,066 permanent seats plus standing room for 1700 plus and temporary seating for major events, with potential to expand to 60,000 for future needs.

Rent ain't 40K is my point. I knew they were close.
