Pioneer Park Ken Waite Field Aberdeen Washington Former secondary home of the Gray's Harbor Ports Loggers & Gulls |
This quaint little wooden ballpark was once a secondary home to the various Grays
Harbor teams that played Single-A and Independent baseball throughout the 70's
and again in the 90's. Hoquiam's Olympic Stadium was the actual home ballpark
of all of these teams, and it was also a wooden facility. However Ken Waite Field
seats about 500 while Olympic Stadium seats about 9000. All of the teams ran
under the location of "Gray's Harbor" instead of "Hoquiam" because Aberdeen and
Hoquiam are sister cities that sort of melt into each other, with Aberdeen actually
being the larger town in comparison. Hoquiam however is where the main
larger ballpark was built so that's where most of the games took place. |
