The baseball diamond in Ochelata has been a gathering place for many decades, for those followers of Little League, the bygone city team, or the U.S. Open of local sporting events… the Fourth of July tournament.
When we were kids there were three dads who were always there, as soon as the weather allowed. They mowed, weeded, raked the dirt, and striped the boundaries before making sure the lights were all working. And once those lights came on, folks would make their way to 4S Field to take in a game or two. It didn’t matter what level was playing, they came.
Forrest “Frosty” Young, Leroy “Sonny” Gardner, and Gene Herren, who coached the city club for 20 years, will forever be a part of our memories. We can never thank them enough for being the caretakers of 4S Field, and stewards of America’s Pastime.
