Got a call last week to shoot a story for The Washington Times on Calfee Park, the 9th oldest professional minor league baseball stadium still currently operating.
Below: Incoming owner David Hagan, left, stands with outgoing owner, Wayne Carpenter, in front of the original entrance to Calfee Park. Hagan and a business partner, Larry Shelor, purchased the park from Carpenter and his business partners, Tom Compton and Rick Mansell, who had operated the park for 25 years. The original entrance to the stadium dates back to 1935, when the park first opened as the Pulaski Athletic Field and was used primarily as a football stadium.
