GBL Ball Fields


Ballfields Through the years the Glenwood League has graced dozens of diamonds throughout the area, but today we play in a handful of fields in Erie and Jamestown. Ainsworth and Brabender fields, located a couple blocks apart, serve as the official homes of the GBL and the vast majority of the contests are played at these two fields.

Russell E. Diethrick, Jr. Park
Jamestown New York

"Built in 1941 Russell E. Diethrick, Jr. Park is the second oldest ballpark in the NY-Penn League. The stadium is owned by the City of Jamestown with the Jammers leasing it as the primary tenant. It was originally known as Jamestown Municipal Stadium and hosted the Jamestown Falcons of the "Pennsylvania-Ontario-New York League" (PONY League), which is now known as the NY-Penn League. The park was later unofficially known as College Stadium after Jamestown Community College relocated their campus right behind the park on Falconer Street in 1961.

On August 9, 1997 the park was renamed Russell E. Diethrick, Jr. Park in honor of Jamestown's "Mr. Baseball." It was dedicated to Mr. Diethrick as he has been player, manager, owner, supporter and friend of professional and youth baseball in Jamestown as a for longer than most can remember. Russ is currently the Community Development Officer for Jamestown Savings Bank. He is an important member of the voluntary Jamestown Jammers Executive Advisory Board, and is the Host President of the Jamestown Babe Ruth World Series Committee and a member of the National Board of Directors for Babe Ruth, Inc

Diethrick Park has recently seen numerous renovations to modernize the ballpark. By the start of the 2006 Jammers season the park will feature a brand new scoreboard and sound system. The Park also hosts all Jamestown Community College and Jamestown High School home baseball games, and the Babe Ruth World Series (most recently in 2005) as well as many other local Babe Ruth games." - www.jamestownjammers.milb.com
