The home of the Winnemac Electrons resounds with the echoes of past greats. Listen closely
and you can hear the wind whisper the names.... Weissenberger..... Versiglio, to name
just a few.
Winnemac Park is without a doubt, one of the most unique ballparks in the game today. From
the rolling hills that make up the length of the 1st base line to the majestic cliff from
which the pitcher's mound drops steeply to the ground below to the awe inspiring canyons
that protrude from either side of home plate, Winnemac Park is a geological treasure trove
of shape and sight. It has even been said
|
|
that, on a clear day, you can see the top of the Sears Tower when standing on the ridge that
runs along the edge of the infield.
Electrons owner Steve Albini, has long pressed the city to grant the park landmark status to
ensure that its features will never be altered. While at this point, his one man crusade has
been unsuccessful, he has pledged to contribute all of his financial resources toward this
noble cause.
