    Eau Claire’s Field Field of Dreams Dreams IN EAU CLAIRE, WISCONSIN THE HISTORIC CARSON PARK BASEBALL STADIUM …Then and Then… Hank Aaron wasn’t the only notable major league player to have played in Carson Park. Through the 1940s and 1950s some of the best young ballplayers from throughout the United States played for the Bears and Braves in Eau Claire. Now In 1940, Andy Pafko, who grew up in Boyceville, had his baseball dreams come true in Eau Claire. Andy had a seventeen-year major league career that included a year with the World Champion Milwaukee Braves in 1957. In 1950, Billy Bruton became the first black player to play for the Bears. Wes Covington, a 1952 teammate of Hank Aaron, went on to a 10- year career with the Milwaukee Braves. In 1956- 57, “Mr. Baseball,” Bob Uecker, played in Eau Claire and had a brief major league career. Bob made his name as a baseball comedian and an Bob Uecker with the 1957 Eau Claire Braves announcer for the Milwaukee Braves. In 1960, Joe Torre led the Northern League in hitting. His career included an 18-year stint as a player in the Major Leagues, as well as many years since managing four major league teams. Andy Pafko … And Now In 1971, the Eau Claire Cavaliers brought amateur baseball back to Carson Park. The Cavaliers featured a mix of Chippewa Valley area players and college ball players. In addition, Carson Park Stadium continues to see regular baseball action from a number of other amateur and school related teams in the region.

  • Bobby Del Greco
    Bobby Del Greco, “Pittsburgh Born & Bred” ©DiamondsintheDusk.com An excellent fielding outfielder who plays 17 seasons in profes- sional baseball, Robert George “Bobby” Del Greco is one of the first players from the highly-touted Pittsburgh Pirates farm sys- tem of the early 1950’s to make it to the major leagues. A native of Pittsburgh’s Hill District, Del Greco plays nine major league seasons with six different teams – Pittsburgh Pirates (1952, 1956), St. Louis Cardinals (1956), Chicago Cubs (1957), New York Yankees (1957-1958), Philadelphia Phillies (1960-61, 1965) and the Kansas City Athletics (1962-1963). Prior to the start of the 1950 season, Pittsburgh Hall of Famer and scout Pie Traynor finds the 17-year-old Del Greco on the sandlots of Pittsburgh and signs him for $500. Less than two years later, Del Greco will start in center field for his hometown Pirates before he turns 19 years old. As a 19-year-old rookie and the National League’s third-youngest player that season, Del Greco makes his major league debut on April 16, 1942, going 3-for-4 with a triple in a 6-to-5 loss to the St. Louis Cardinals. Two days later, he again goes 3-for-4 with another triple in his first-ever game at the Pirates’ Forbes Field. On June 9, 1952, Del Greco hits his first major league home run off of Milwaukee starter Jim Wilson in the sixth inning of a 3-to-2 loss to the Braves and becomes one of only 88 players, from 1900 to 2000, to hit a home run in the major leagues prior to his 20th birthday.

    Forgotten Heroes: Bob “The Rope” Boyd by Center for Negro League Baseball Research Dr. Layton Revel Copyright 2020 Bob Boyd – Major Leaguer Chicago White Sox (1953) Chicago White Sox (1954) Baltimore Orioles (1957) Baltimore Orioles (1959) Robert Richard “Bob” Boyd was born on October 1, 1919 in Potts Camp, Marshall County, Mississippi to Willie and Bertha Boyd. Bob grew up in and attended high school in New Albany, Mississippi. Bob’s father Willie and Willie’s brother were reportedly very good baseball players themselves and Bob remembers watching his father and uncle play ball when he was younger. While he was still in high school, Bob’s mother passed away and he moved to Memphis, Tennessee to live with his father. Bob Boyd stood five feet ten inches tall and weighed approximately 170 pounds during his playing career. He batted from the left hand side of the plate and threw left handed. He was a pure contact hitter who was difficult to strike out. Bob’s hard line-drive hitting that to some resembled the trajectory of a rifle bullet earned him the nickname “The Rope” or “El Ropo” when he played in Latin America. This moniker was given to him by Luman Harris when Luman was the pitching coach for the Chicago White Sox. Even though he didn’t hit for a lot of power, Bob consistently hit for average. Throughout his career Bob Boyd always delivered for a batting average that was well above the .300 mark. During his Negro Bob Boyd League career which lasted from 1946 to 1950, he compiled an Chicago White Sox exemplary .363 career batting average in “league” games.
