This cache is named for the best baseball player to call War Memorial Stadium home -- Hall of Fame catcher, Johnny Bench who was a member of the 1966 Peninsula Greys.
Historic War Memorial Stadium in Hampton serves as home to the Peninsula's team, the Peninsula Pilots. Construction began on the venerable stadium in 1947 thanks to a regional cooperative venture between the cities of Hampton and Newport News, VA. Construction was completed the following year, 1948, and the facility was given the name War Memorial Stadium as a tribute to those that fought for our nation in WWII. That's when when the Brooklyn Dodgers moved their Piedmont League (Class A) operation to town. War Memorial had its first "Home Team." The Newport News Baby Dodgers, and a proud tradition of baseball on the Peninsula, was born.
FTF Prize is 2 tickets a Norfolk Tides game (these are 2 of my past-date season tickets that can be exchanged for 2 tickets to any future Tides game).
Congrats to 14frets for the FTF!!!
