Stadiums Indiana Bruce Grounds

Bruce Grounds or Bruce Park was a baseball ground located in Indianapolis, Indiana. The ground was home to the Indianapolis Hoosiers of the American Association in 1884. It was also used for Sunday games by the Indianapolis Hoosiers of the National League in 1887. The ball field was located at Bruce (now 23rd) Street and College Avenue. The National League club's primary home was Tinker Park. They staged Sunday games at the old AA park, outside the city limits, due to blue laws. The club did not draw well at the site because it was too far from the city center. Sunday games during 1888 and 1889 were held at Indianapolis Park. The ballpark site is now occupied by residential and commercial buildings.
