258 A8971 Headshot

Harris-Stowe State University and the St. Louis Cardinals on Tuesday broke ground on a $1.2 million renovation project that will include new baseball and softball fields at the former site of a Negro League ballpark. The renovation is partially funded by the Cardinals’ charitable arm, which has provided $1.1 million for the project. The softball and baseball facility is located at the university on the corner of Market Street and Compton Avenue in Midtown. The renovations of Stars Park will include new fields, dugouts, scoreboards, press boxes and seating that will accommodate 200 fans at the baseball field and 100 at the softball field. The university’s baseball and softball teams compete in the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics (NAIA). St. Louis Business Journal
