Cramton Bowl

From BR Bullpen

The Cramton Bowl in Montgomery, AL was one of two home ballparks used by the Montgomery Grey Sox of the Negro Southern League, along with College Hill Park, including during the 1932 season, when the NSL was a major league.

The park was originally designed for football, and the gridiron and part of the original grandstand survive to this day.
