| St. Cloud Commons was home
to several minor league teams during the mid 1990's, but will probably
never see professional baseball again. The park consists of a cozy
wooden grandstand behind home plate, two small covered bleachers behind
each dugout, and some additional bleachers further down each line.
The grandstand is painted a dark shade of red, giving it a barn-like feel.
While the park still appears to get some use, the upkeep seems to be lagging.
The infield grass has been torn up so now the infield is completely dirt,
probably so it can get some use as a softball field as well. Looks
to be a cool little park to have seen a game in. There have been
rumors about building a new park on the Marshall University campus to try
to lure another team to Huntington, but nothing is definite.
