    This was a great place to stop at off the beaten path to learn more about the history of the Cleveland Indians. This is a small museum that is run by volunteers that are very knowledgeable and friendly. It was amazing to see all out the artifacts they had on display as well as to learn that this was once a major league ball park. Definitely worth stopping if you are a Cleveland fan. There is off street parking for when you do.

    Absolutely loved this museum. If you are a baseball fan and love history, it's a must see. The staff (Brenda and Todd) are amazing people and so knowledgeable. Todd is like a baseball history buff. Also got to meet Ricardo (curator/director) and Chuck who works to keep the ground beautiful. Also had the pleasure to meet Bob who founded the museum. Such a lovely humble human being. Picked up a Lapel pin for my collection and just love that you can walk the field and just imagine that you are on the very same field as baseball legends and hall of famers. It's a must visit!!!

    A hidden gem if the city and neighborhood! This museum is a great representation of the wide history of baseball with artifacts and exhibits from all backgrounds and the history of the sport in the region. Affordable cost and neat gifts to purchase. They also gave out old trading cards of your favorite team, my favorite personal touch

    An informative place rich with history. Brenda and Todd have a love for Cleveland and baseball. The museum has historical items and gives a great timeline of what was happening not only in baseball, but the world. Ricardo, the director, was warm and inviting. Bob Z, the man responsible for this wonderful museum, could not have been more personable. Chuck keeps League Park looking fantastic. As a fan of baseball, my husband and I enjoyed taking a dive into the past. We had the opportunity to walk onto the field where so many greats played ball. This place leaves you in awe.

    Just WOW!!!! Brenda and Todd were incredible! This is a great spot for any baseball officianados to visit, not just Naps/Spiders/Indians/Guardians fans. Some nice memorabilia and exhibits in what was one of the original buildings and it was neat there is 1 wall preserved as well. Was extremely excited to see some Larry Doby items on display. Not enough baseball fans know about him and his story. Some great stuff from the AAGPBL, looks like they are still building the collections as the 2nd visitor center has some room to grow around the original stairs and really nice mural. The highlight for me, outside the wonderful engagement I had with Brenda and Todd, the field is the same field as when the stadium opened. Albeit redone with modern turf... There is something really awesome about standing on the same mound as Cy Young, or in the batters box thinking about Ruth or Gehrig or Cobb or Speaker. I probably spent way to much time squatting behind home plate imagining those scenarios. This is a beautiful place and truly a must see if you are in the area. I hope it continues to grow and builds a nice legacy in this area.

    We went to the Sam McDowell signing, and the entire experience was wonderful. My husband interacted with one of your volunteers, Brenda, who was very personable and welcoming. You all do a great job and we will continue visiting.
