Английская Википедия:Blue Sox Stadium
Blue Sox Stadium was a ballpark located in Abilene, Texas and was the home to the Abilene Blue Sox of the West Texas–New Mexico League (1946–1955) and the Big State League (1956–1957).[1] The park was located on the northeast corner of Barrow and South 14th streets; at the present time, the site is home to the H-E-B grocery store.
The stadium opened in April 1946 to host the Blue Sox and was suitable for night play from its opening date.[2]
Closure and demolition
Repairs were made to the stadium prior to the 1956 season, with new box seats being added along with a new infield.[3]
However, the site of the stadium was purchased and petitioned for re-zoning for the end of the 1957 baseball season.[4][5] The stadium was razed in September 1957 and replaced with a shopping center.[6]
