Rickwood Field, located in Birmingham, Alabama, is the oldest professional baseball park in the United States. It was built for the Birmingham Barons in 1910 by industrialist and team-owner Rick Woodward and served as the home park for the Birmingham Barons and the Birmingham Black Barons of the Negro leagues. The park underwent a renovation to prepare it for an MLB game in 2024, with key changes including a new playing surface, expanded dugouts, and safety upgrades. The renovations also included an upgraded lighting system, an LED videoboard. The 2025 MLB East-West Classic will be played at Rickwood Field on Juneteenth.
