It isn't even 40 years old yet. JC didn't open untill 68 or 69. It has a lot of stories no doubt and has had some great players play on it. But, I wouldn't go and say "the most historic high school baseball field in all of Eastern Kentucky". Apparently you haven't talked to some of the old local diamond die hards. There is were you will find out were the historic fields are.

Uhhh, the math that I use says that 2007-1968=39 years, and that same system of math that I use is taught at the same place where I believe you learned your math at so, I think that 40 years works out pretty well for that comment. Would you not agree?

What other field would you think would be more historic? Perhaps a dumb question on my part, but just wondering which one you think might be. I have been to several places all up and down the eastern seaboard playing baseball and when the fact is mentioned that I was from Paintsville, Ky. , the comment comes back as "that's where they have that minor league field , isn't it?" You may not believe that but it has happened more than once. People may not realize that it was at Johnson Central High School, but they do indeed remember something about a field in Paintsville , Kentucky. I doubt that there is any other field in this area that brings up a recollection similar to that.
