Herschel Greer Stadium - Biocrawler Herschel Greer Stadium is a minor league baseball stadium located in Nashville, Tennessee on the grounds of Fort Negley, an American Civil War fortification located approximately two miles (three km) south of downtown Nashville. Greer, as it is familiarly called, was built in the late 1970s as a venue for the Nashville Sounds, originally a AA minor league baseball team in the Southern League, affiliated with the Cincinnati Reds. Greer was considered a modern, attractive minor league stadium in its early years and was home to some of the largest crowds in the minor leagues in the late 1970s and early 1980s. www.biocrawler.com /encyclopedia/Herschel_Greer_Stadium   (365 words)

Herschel Greer Stadium is definitely not a park going out of your way to see, especially now that the team seems to be neglecting it almost completely. www.ballparkreviews.com /nashvl/nashvl.htm   (531 words)

Herschel Greer Stadium, Nashville, Tenn.   (Site not responding.
