Featured article review needed

From this page alone, it is apparent that the article is badly dated: [1]
The lead is an inadequate summary of the article.
MOS:SANDWICHing of images.
Ground rules are cited to a non-existent website, yet with an accessdate. And 2006-- no changes since then?

The article needs an overhaul and update to avoid a Featured article review. SandyGeorgia (Talk) 21:13, 25 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

NatureBoyMD thanks for getting on this. I am unwatching, so pls ping me if you want anything reviewed. SandyGeorgia (Talk) 23:25, 25 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@SandyGeorgia: I've reorganized the article, replaced or archived dead references, added to significant baseball happenings at the park and recent events, and rewritten the lead, in addition to making general improvements. If you'd care to take a look and see if anything else stands out in need of improvement, I'll see if I can do any more. NatureBoyMD (talk) 16:00, 28 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, NatureBoyMD; I am marking it off of WP:URFA/2020. Regards, SandyGeorgia (Talk) 19:13, 28 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
