Recreation Park (Columbus)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Recreation Park is a former Baseball ground located in Columbus, Ohio, USA. The ground was home to the Columbus Buckeyes of the American Association for the 1883 and 1884 seasons as well as the Columbus Solons from 1889 to 1891.

In the early 1890s the Ohio State University football team played many of their home games at Recreation Park. A historical marker was put up at the former site of the field on October 20, 2006 to commemorate the first Ohio State home game, played on November 1, 1890 against Wooster College.^[1]
