Post 2000 Quigley Memorial Stadium West Haven Connecticut Former Home of the -West Haven Yankees -West Haven A's & the -West Haven White Caps |
Quigley Field had been home to professional Double-A Baseball for 11 years, from
1972 until 1982. The ballpark was dismantled after the Eastern League left in 1983.
While part of the 3rd baseline still stands (and even then, not truly part
of the original facility), the ballpark that stands today does not give you any
recollection of how large or elaborate this stadium once was. In this collection
of photographs, we will show the ballpark from when it was used by such teams
as the New York Yankees and the Oakland A’s for Double-A Baseball (the first
3 photos we just showed you for example) and how it looks in comparison to what
is still standing today as you see here. We’re sorry for the quality of some
of these earlier photographs as they are a little out of focus but there are very
few photographs of Quigley Stadium on this planet and we’re quite happy to have
them in any shape, showing us how the old wooden grandstand once looked. |
