The Scoop

Old Mill is a working-class diamond — no frills, but the field plays true. Big right field, short porch in left, and a stiff afternoon wind that turns routine flies into adventures. Bring sunscreen and your own toilet paper.

⚾ FOUL BALL HALL OF FAME

Wind pushes everything to right field. Pop-ups behind first base regularly carry into the parking lot — three windshields cracked last season per the maintenance guy. Foul liners down the 1st base line have a clear path to the chain-link and rattle off it like a snare drum.

    Honest field. No-frills. The wind is brutal but at least it's the same for both teams. Porta-potty situation is what it is. We bring our own canopy for shade now.

    No bathroom is a deal-breaker for the under-8 crowd. Field itself is fine.

Played here? Spill the dirt.
