A plaque commemorating more than seventy years of baseball history in Buffalo was unveiled on Saturday.
Offermann Stadium long stood at the intersection of Michigan and East Ferry Streets. The ceremony was hosted by former Bisons voice Pete Weber and was attended by two sons of former team owner Frank Offermann, Sr. The effort was the brainchild of John Boutet of the Greater Buffalo Sports Hall of Fame.
Such greats as Hank Aaron, Jackie Robinson, Luke Easter and Satchel Paige played at the stadium.
