Oriole Park is a park in Auburn, a western suburb of the Australian metropolis Sydney. It is named after a baseball stadium that used to be there and which was the home of the Auburn Baseball Club, known as Auburn Orioles, which are now merged with Macarthur Colts to form the Macarthur Orioles.
The stadium hosted the interstate competition Claxton Shield in 1970, 1975, 1980, and 1981.[1] The field was extended and had lighting added prior to hosting the 1980 competition.[2] Oriole Park was alongside the Flat Rock baseball diamond in Willoughby one of the two venues of the VIII Baseball World Junior Championship 1988.
Auburn's Oriole Park was a contender to become a venue for the Baseball competition of the Sydney 2000 Olympics, however, eventually it was decided to host those events at the Sydney Showground Stadium and the newly established Blacktown Olympic Park.[3]
The stadium was demolished and removed sometime between 2009 and 2013. The eight floodlight masts were kept standing. Two of them nowadays serve as relays for mobile telephony and the like.[4] In 2017 Cumberland Council announced that an adjacent building which served the stadium and baseball on the ground would be torn down as restoring it would be too expensive.[5]
