Morphology
The compound 'baseball field' is directly compositional: 'baseball' specifies the sport and 'field' denotes a playing ground, so together they mean the playing ground used for baseball. This noun+noun compound follows a common and cross-linguistically familiar pattern, so a B1 learner who knows both constituents can readily infer the meaning.
Etymology
Baseball field is a simple name from the place where baseball is played: the word baseball (the game) plus field (an open playing area). That's why it means 'a field for baseball'.
