Norm Aldridge Field
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Norm Aldridge Field is a municipally owned, natural-grass baseball diamond in Stronach Park in northeast London, Ontario, that was built as a secondary baseball venue for the 2001 Canada Summer Games and named by London city council after longtime London sportsman/ athlete, Norman James Aldridge, on September 5, 2000.
The baseball diamond has the same dimensions as Labatt Park in London, namely: 330 feet down the left- and right-field lines and 405 feet to the centre-field fence.
Aldridge holds the distinction of being the City of London's oldest (part-time) employee. He worked at Stronach Park and Stronach Arena in London, after he retired from General Steel Wares.
