- View of an exhibition baseball game between the Atlanta Crackers and the Brooklyn Dodgers at Ponce de Leon Park in Atlanta, Georgia.
Ponce de Leon Park was built in 1907 on Ponce de Leon Avenue, two miles east of downtown Atlanta, Georgia. The stadium burned in 1923 and re-opened with funding from businessman R. J. Spiller. The park was home to the Atlanta Crackers, a minor league baseball team that competed in the Southern Association from 1901-1965. The ballpark was razed in 1966. - Local Identifier:
