Miller Field was a baseball stadium in Owensboro, Kentucky.
Miller Field's final tenant was the Owensboro Oilers of the Kentucky–Illinois–Tennessee League (also called the KITty League), playing there from 1937 to 1955.[1] Miller Field was considered the finest ballpark in the KITty League.[2]
Miller Field was situated at Triplett Avenue and East 18th Street in Owensboro.[3] Home plate was oriented to the northeast.[4] Its dimensions were 320 feet (left field), 365 feet (center field) and 320 feet (right field).[5]
Miller Field was demolished on September 19, 1955, after the dissolution of the KITTY League.[6][7] James C. Ellis, who bought the property, stated that the parcel of land was too valuable to be a baseball park.[8]
