Bugle field

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Bugle Field was a Baltimore based, predominantly wooden stadium utilized by the two primary Negro League teams of the 1920s - early 1950s the Baltimore Black Sox and Baltimore Elite Giants. The Black Sox had a short tenure at the park, moving into the park permanently in 1932 before folding during the 1934 season. The Elite Giants were the park's primary tenants until its dismantlement during the 1949 Negro National League Championship Series. It was located at the corner of Federal Street and Edison Highway.
