Ponce de Leon Park

From BR Bullpen

Ponce de Leon Park in Atlanta, Georgia, was home of the minor league Atlanta Crackers for more than a half century and also hosted the Atlanta Black Crackers of the Negro Leagues for several years. Built in 1903, the original all-wood stadium seated 11,000 fans. Late in the 1923 season, the park was destroyed by a fire. It was rebuilt as a 15,000 seat concrete park before the 1924 season and initially known as Spiller Park, before being renamed Ponce de Leon Park in 1932. One of its most unique features was a magnolia tree that was in play in front of a scoreboard in right center field.
