About Rickwood Field Flickr Group
"Rickwood Field, located at 1137 2nd Avenue West, at the corner of 12th Street West in West End, is the oldest surviving professional baseball park in the United States. It was built for the Birmingham Barons in 1910 by industrialist and team-owner Rick Woodward and served as the home park for the Barons and for the Birmingham Black Barons of the Negro Leagues. The Barons moved their home games to the Hoover Metropolitan Stadium in 1987. Since then, Rickwood Field has been preserved and is undergoing gradual restoration as a "working museum" where baseball's history can be experienced."
