Lack of notability, verifiability, and reliable sources. The only source that is given does not mention Base Ball Park. Furthermore, according to the Wikipedia page regarding Joplin Miners, there is contradicting information regarding the ball park where the team played (in that article, Cox Park was the ball park in the years 1902-1906 (source provided)). I was unable to find any sources that corroborates the existence of Base Ball Park. LittleT889 (talk) 04:04, 14 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. I don't see much in my BEFORE. The only reference seems to be baseball-reference which is a copy of Wikipedia (did not get into who copied who).Icewhiz (talk) 16:00, 14 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - fails V, but also WP:NOTINDISCRIMINATE. Base Ball Park was a common name at that time for, you guessed it, baseball parks.[1] If more can't be said about a park in Joplin (at that time population ~30,000), then I don't see the subject as very encyclopedic.

Delete - The name might refer to any venue for baseball. If it referred to a specific one, I would want a redirect to the club, but with such a generic name that is undesirable. Peterkingiron (talk) 16:34, 17 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to baseball park as it is a valid search term. ~EDDY ^{(talk/contribs)}~ 23:28, 17 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete not verifiable. History should not be preserved here, but a new redirect to Baseball park can be made separately. power~enwiki (π, ν) 17:31, 18 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. As noted above this seems to lack verification and there is no real sign of any notability. Dunarc (talk) 22:41, 20 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
