It is primarily used for baseball, and was the home field of the Savannah Sand Gnats minor league baseball team, the Class-A affiliate of the New York Mets. It was also the part-time home of the Savannah State University college baseball team. It was also used from 1927 until 1959 for the annual Thanksgiving Day game between Savannah High School and Benedictine Academy. Known as "Historic Grayson Stadium" it was built in 1926. It holds 4,000 people. ==History== Originally known as Municipal Stadium, the park underwent major renovations in 1941 following a devastating hurricane in 1940. Spanish–American War veteran General William L. Grayson led the effort to get the $150,000 needed to rebuild the stadium. Half of the funds came from the Works Progress Administration (WPA). In recognition of Grayson's work, the stadium was renamed in his honor. The first South Atlantic League game with both Black and White players took place at Grayson Stadium on April 14, 1953.〔 〕 The park recently went through a two-year renovation process that started prior to the 2007 season. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Grayson Stadium」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
