Alberta Day 4

Today is the last post for the Alberta Day Holiday weekend. My subject today is baseball. Baseball arrived in Edmonton in 1884 with the Edmonton Legislatures. The closest we came to pro baseball was the Edmonton Trappers of the Triple A Pacific Coast League. Over the years we were the farm team for the Chicago White Sox, California Angel's and the Florida Marlins. Both the White Sox and Angels played games here in Edmonton. Today our team is the Edmonton Riverhawks of the West Coast League.
Our Stadium is Remax Field. Over the years we have had a few different Stadiums built on this very site

A great perspective to capture the stadium with the low light coming through the trees and on the road. (Interesting info, too) Fav

I wondered what the building was - it has such a different shape and dimensions. Well caught in your image.
