Keller-Faszholz Field

Keller-Faszholz Field was a ballpark located in Austin, Texas that was the home of the Concordia University Tornados baseball team through the 2008 season.[1] The last game at the venue was played on April 19, 2008. It was named after former head coaches Jack Faszholz and James Keller.[1][2][3] The university's main campus moved, and a new ballpark, Gardner-Boggs Field, opened in 2010.[4][5] Scott Linebrink, who played at Keller-Fazholz Field and was the first Tornado to play in Major League Baseball, donated $300,000 to help build the new stadium.[6]
