Rickwood Field is America's oldest ballpark and is located in downtown Birminham, Al. It has seen some great baseball players come through and play on it's field. Namely Willie Mays, Babe Ruth, Ty Cobb, and Drew Rodgers.
Playing baseball while I lived in Birmingham meant that I got to play a number of games at Rickwood and it was always fun to show up at the ballpark and think about some of the greats that have also played there.
ESPN reporter Jim Caple recently wrote a story about Rickwood and its long history.
