Municipal Stadium (Hagerstown)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Municipal Stadium is a stadium in Hagerstown, Maryland. It is primarily used for baseball, and is the home field of the Hagerstown Suns minor league baseball team. It was built in 1931 in a short time period of six weeks. It holds 4,600 people which is the third smallest capacity in the league behind; Appalachian Power Park and Golden Park. In 2005 a movement arose to rename an adjacent street to honor Willie Mays, who played his first game at the park as a minor league rookie. The proposal, however, was shot down due to protests by various American war veterans groups who wanted to keep the original road name of Memorial Boulevard. The affair was covered by ESPN on its Outside the Lines program.
