What direction does home plate face at the new Twins Target Field ball park?

No, Baseball fields are laid out in a variety of directions. However, early baseball rules recommended that the field be laid out with the line between home plate and 2nd base running north to south and 3rd to 1st east to west. Not sure why this was recommended, but speculate that because all baseball was played in the daytime before the 1930s, that it was preferred to have the sun setting behind 1st base so that the firstbaseman would not have a "sun in the eyes" problem on throws to first.
According to the 2012 Major League Baseball rules a baseball field is recommended to face east northeast.

Is an electric field a potential field?
no electric field is not a potential field .ELECTRIC FIELD IS A SCALAR QUANTITY WHERE AS POTENTIAL IS THE VECTOR QUANTITY. NO SCALAR QUANTITY HAS A FIELD SO THERE IS NO RELATION BETWEEN ELECTRIC FIELD AND POTENTIAL OR IN OTHER WORD POTENTIAL HAS NO FIELD <<>> An electric field is a vector field, because it has magnitude and direction. A pair of charged parallel plates has an electric field between them directed from the negative to the positive plate. The electric field is the gradient of the potential, which is another field but a scalar one. A field is just a quantity with a value that depends on positon. The potential is measured in volts and if one plate is grounded and the other at positive potential V, the potential rises from zero to V as the position changes from the lower plate to the top one.
