How much are tickets for the MLB at Rickwood Field? Tickets, parking, TV info for the event
Birmingham's Rickwood Field, the oldest professional ballpark in the United States, will host a special regular-season Major League Baseball game between the St. Louis Cardinals and San Francisco Giants on June 20.
Rickwood was chosen by MLB for the event to highlight the history of the Negro Leagues. The Birmingham Black Barons played at Rickwood Field from 1924-60. Some of the greatest players in baseball history graced the stadium during their time with the Black Barons, including Leroy "Satchel" Paige and Willie Mays.
The idea for a game at Rickwood was conceived alongside the ideas of playing on a military base and at the Field of Dreams, which both came to fruition in 2021 and 2022. The game has officially been dubbed "The MLB at Rickwood Field: A Tribute to the Negro Leagues" and will pay homage to the rich history of the stadium and the Negro Leagues as a whole.
