The gift of nighttime baseball for Saugus

Teams can now play under the lights at World Series Park

(Editor’s Note: The following info is from a press release issued this week by World Series Park.)

  The installation of lights at World Series Park was completed the first week of October. No night games were played this season because the teams that play there had concluded their seasons.

  “The lights came out great,” World Series Park Superintendent Bob Davis said.

  “It’s beautiful to see the field lit up at night. We’re looking forward to the 2022 season with the addition of a lot of night games. Several teams and leagues have expressed an interest in playing night games,” Davis said. “We very much appreciate those people who donated to our Lighting Fund. It’s not too late to donate.”

  Anyone who donates $100 or more can get their name or the name of a departed loved one on the permanent lighting fund plaque. It’s located on the third base dugout and is lit up at night. Donations can be made by sending a check payable to World Series Park, 8 Holden Ave., Saugus, MA 01906.
