Clark Field

Does anybody know anything about or have any additional pictures of Clark Field, former home of UT baseball. All I have is this old pic...

I think it used to be located next to DKR and I was wondering if anybody knew when and why they moved. I have a thing for old baseball parks and I would love some pics or just some info on the park. It's looks like it was a cool place to watch a game.

I got a lucky and was directed to a thread from back in '02 describing the stadium. Seems as though that rock wall and hill were in the field of play :eek: Must have sucked to be a center fielder back then.

aggy winning a championship is very rare, so you can best believe someone had a camera in case they won it;)
