Also known as City Stadium, this ballpark was home to numerous teams from 1936 as the home of the Portsmouth Cubs to the 1969 Tidewater Tides. It also hosted several neutral site Negro Leagues games over the years. The field's odd shape is attributed to its use as a football stadium. It was torn down in 1997 after several years of neglect. This rendition is how it looked in the late 1940s/early 1950s.

Home of the Class B Yankees affiliate Norfolk Tars from 1940-1955 and several neutral site Negro Leagues games. Numerous Yankee greats including Yogi Berra, Elston Howard, and Phil Rizzutto played here.

You are on fire! Wonderful work on all of these. I think it's time for this threat to become a sticky.

Joe Engel Stadium served as the home of the Chattanooga Lookouts from 1930-1999. Several unique features include 30 foot high walls around most of the field and a terrace in centerfield. In this version, the terrace has bleachers resting on top as they appeared for at least one season. Most of the ads are a mix from 1930-1950 and were created from scratch. Sadly, the stadium has fallen into disrepair in recent years and was recently marked for demolition in October 2025.

I'll echo the others--great job on these! I look forward to using them.

Still in use today by the Evansville Otters of the independent Frontier League, Bosse Field opened in 1915 and is currently the third oldest stadium still in use for professional baseball. Largely based on this model, I rolled the stadium back to its 1930s/40s configuration. As CF is 480+ feet away, this park will give you lots of doubles and triples.

Westport Stadium was the last home of the Negro League's Baltimore Elite Giants from 1949-1950. After the Elites moved in 1951 and folded, it took on new life as a 1/5 mile racetrack until it closed in 1963.

This small ballpark in Fremont, Ohio (about 30 minutes south of Toledo) was home to the Fremont Reds/Green Sox from 1936-1941. It existed under several names and hosted amateur baseball until the nearby Herbrand Tool factory acquired the land for expansion in the 50s. Very few pictures of the park exist so dimensions are approximate.

Very nice ballparks.

The original Memorial Stadium was hastily pressed into service in 1944 as the home of the AAA Baltimore Orioles when Oriole Park (V) burned down midseason. Attendance boomed at the venue and the St. Louis Browns moved to town in 1954, playing at a heavily reconfigured site. The dimensions were extrapolated from the book Green Cathedrals and heavily favor right handed sluggers:

LFL 290
LF 316
LCF 362
CF 437
RCF 545
RF 488
RFL 472

Mack Park served as the home of the Detroit Stars from 1920-1929. According to Seamheads, the park had incredibly cozy dimensions that favored left handed hitters:

Left Field: 358
Straightaway Left Field: 365
Left Center: 390
Center Field Corner: 444 (at 42 degrees and left of dead CF
Center Field: 405
Right Center: 318
Straightaway Right Field: 278
Right Field: 265
Backstop: 37
Fence Height: 12 Feet

Home to the famous House of David religious colony that regularly barnstormed against Negro League teams. There aren't a lot of photos out there, but from what I can tell, there were no lights. Based on the attached overhead photo from 1959, the dimensions were rather spacious but the RF "porch" seemed to favor left handed hitters:

LFL 370
LF 460
LCF 506
CF 495
RCF 402
RF 340
RFL 314
