Regions Field Named Ballpark of the Year!
Baseballparks.com has named Birmingham’s Regions Field the 2013 Ballpark of the Year. The website looked at baseball parks around the country and judged the honor on superior design, attractive site selection and fan amenities.
“The 2013 season and the opening of Regions Field has been an incredible moment for the Barons organization and the Birmingham community,” said the Logan family, owners of the Barons. “To receive this national recognition is quite an honor. There are so many people and organizations that have contributed to the development, design and construction of this ballpark, and this award along with the local support and reaction definitively proves that Regions Field is a one-of-a-kind ballpark that offers something for everybody.”
Birmingham Mayor William Bell said, “We are so excited (over) the success of Regions Field. To see the diverse crowds, the excitement and the good old-fashioned fun at the stadium has really generated a sense of community. We look forward to many years of success for this field.”
