Talk:Rickwood Field

6/1/07

I added a little info in the history b/t '58 and 67, removing "Oakland" reference. It read something to the effect of 'Finley bringing the Oakland Athletics' AA team for the 1967 season...' The A's weren't in Oakland until '68. -source for corrections/elaborations: Good Wood: A fan's history of Rickwood Field by Ben Cook, pp. 88-95.

Is it worth (or proper) mentioning some of the great (major league) A's who played at Rickwood during this time? (Jackson, Blue, Fingers, McClain, etc.)

Also clarified the professional affiliation of the Barons in the 80's (they were with the Tigers '81-85). -- fats 14:42, 11 June 2007 (PDT)

• Nice work. I'm not sure how to handle players who played exhibitions and the like at Rickwood, because there would be tons of them. Maybe just the Hall of Famers? Or a separate list of notable ones. Some of this info might fit better in the article(s) about the Barons themselves as well as (or instead of) in the article about the park. --Dystopos 22:10, 11 June 2007 (PDT)
