A look back at the beloved ballpark that served as the home of the Reds from 1912 - 1970. The story of Crosley Field is told through images, one-of-a-kind artifacts, video presentations and a special soundtrack that recreates the unique sounds of a game day at Crosley. Visitors are able to set the Reds' lineup for the day on an 8-foot-tall replica of a portion of the massive Crosley Field scoreboard and also experience the feeling of going uphill to chase a fly ball on the Hall of Fame's recreation of the famous Crosley Field outfield terrace.
Cincinnati's role in the Negro League story is examined through images, period artifacts and rare film footage. Exhibit highlights include early game-used bats from Willie Mays, Hank Aaron and Ernie Banks, each of whom began his career in the Negro Leagues. Rare footage of a Negro Leagues game played at Crosley Field in 1946 plays continuously in the exhibit space and seldom-seen advertising broadsides promoting the Cincinnati Clowns are on public display for the first time. The exhibit also pays homage to Chuck Harmon, the Reds' first African-American player.
