I think golf stands out as one sport with the largest pitch.

polo,
The outdoor polo field is 300 yards long and 160 yards wide, the largest field in organized sport.
The average 18-hole golf facility takes up 150-200 acres, teeing areas using 2%, putting greens 2%, fairways 23%, rough/woods/water 70%, buildings and grounds 3%.
An acre is equal to 43,560 square feet and a polo field is 432,000 square feet, making the average golf course larger.

Polo has the largest pitch, golf is played on a course.

Largest pitch is probably cricket.
Some know it all will probably come out with golf, but its not a pitch.

This is a dodgy quiz question. The "normal" answer is POLO.
However, I always argue that GOLF is a much bigger "pitch".
And then; if Round the World yachting is a sport .......

golf - fine its a playing surface.
largest pitch - elephant polo (and yes it's a real sport, apparently the Scots have one of the best national teams!)

When Native Americans played lacrosse, they played on fields that spanned 2 or 3 miles. These days, I'd say golf though.
