Once known as "Baseball's Most Historic
Park Since 1870", Sulphur Dell in Nashville, Tennessee, was the home of
the Nashville Vols in the Southern Association from 1901 until 1961 and
in the South Atlantic League in 1963. The Negro League Nashville
Elite Giants called Sulphur Dell their home in the 1930s. Long
gone but not forgotten, the memories remain for many who visited the old
ballpark and cheered for the Vols, Elite Giants, and amateur teams who
played there.

Sulphur Dell
was a unique ballpark. The low-lying field gave an unusual
contour to the outfield dimensions, where right field fence was
only 262 feet from home plate and the bottom of the fence was
22 1/2 feet above the playing field!
