Mapped elsewhere, not listed here
The league itself names no fields and gives no addresses. The association behind it keeps a statewide ballpark and team map, and a ranked list of the top hundred Minnesota ballparks.
Stearns County town ball parks are among the best amateur grounds in the country, several of them with grandstands older than anybody playing on them, and this league's seven towns are in the middle of that country.
None of which tells a visiting side which turn to take in Pearl Lake.
High Cheese ties a ballpark, an address and a map to the game on the schedule, and carries a national ballpark directory.
