I miss VFYW so this is a great game. Clues: Compass rose on image showed north. Shadows of light banks indicated northern hemisphere. Add left-hand drive and you get Japan. Google images (without reverse search) and the checkerboard seats points to Hiroshima stadium (34.391856, 132.484817).
I guessed it was Japan just because that seemed much more likely than you using a US stadium and there’s not a lot of other countries (if any) that would have a baseball stadium that big; it seemed to be confirmed by left-hand traffic patterns. I spent a long time looking at images of Japanese baseball stadiums before trying Google Image Search. Sigh.
Mazda Zoom-Zoom Stadium (I love that), Hiroshima. Home of the Toyo Carp
Finally got around to looking at these…
Did an image search for ‘baseball stadium Japan’, having looked at a couple of other countries first.
The stadium in Hiroshima matched; for instance the right field deck in the bleachers and the gap in the upper tier to the right field behind home plate.
Checked with google maps.
Mazda Stadium. Baseball (only) outdoor (not domed)stadium; traffic on left side of centerline –> Japan. http://www.worldstadiums.com

1) It’s clearly a new stadium.
2) Cars are driving in the left, rather than the right side of the road, so it’s not an American stadium.
Whereas is baseball popular? I googled “Japanese baseball stadiums” and came up with this: http://www.stadiumjourney.com/news/08-18-2013/449/japanese-baseball-stadium-rankings/.
Then keyword search “new” and found the Mazda Stadium. Then to confirm, I searched for it in Google Maps (34°23’32.0″N, 132°29’05.5″E).
That you chose a ball park in Hiroshima is interesting.
