Oakdale Park

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Oakdale Park is a former baseball field located in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, United States. The field was home to the Philadelphia Athletics in their first season of the American Association in 1882. The site of the park had been used for amateur baseball since the Civil War.

The AA Athletics played a single season at the park, located at 12th and Huntingdon Streets (in West Kensington), [1] relocating to Jefferson Street Grounds in 1883. The park was sold shortly thereafter and torn down.
