Baseball field “in a class of its own” burns down

The baseball field made famous by the 1992 film “A League of Their Own” has burned down.

Local news channel ABC7 reported Friday that the Jay Littleton Ball Park in Ontario, California – which was also used in several other films – was destroyed overnight.

The fire broke out on Thursday around 11:30 p.m. local time.

When firefighters arrived, they reportedly encountered massive flames blazing from the stadium and the players' bench.

Although not much could be done to save the areas, no injuries were reported.

According to the source, fire investigators searched the burned remains on Friday morning.

The baseball field was built in the 1930s with a timber frame grandstand.

Officials told ABC7 that the building, which has been renovated several times, likely still has a lot of old wood that is dry and burns easily and quickly.

Although the film appeared in several Hollywood productions, “A League of Their Own” starring Tom Hanks, Geena Davis, Madonna and Rosie O'Donnell is the most well-known.

Page Six has contacted her representatives for comment.

Today, Jay Littleton Ball Park is owned by the city and operated by the Department of Public Works.

Community members are devastated.

“This ballpark was the heart of Ontario; it's a historic ballpark, a place for our kids to play,” Aaron Matthiesen, president of the Ontario Eastern Little League, said, according to the outlet.

“Unfortunately, we won’t get another chance to play there.”
