That new and far superior ballpark was dubbed the Community Center BB Park… later
the Americus Baseball Park and finally Thomas L Bell Memorial Stadium, named after
the mayor who worked so tirelessly to bring this quality park to this town
before passing on in 1942. Today the stadium is owned by the Americus-Sumter High
School and is actually located right on its grounds… in fact the view from
the stands is of the High School and the A-SHS Panthers are this ballpark's main
tenant today. |
