Third Base Building at Doubleday Field
Now Officially “Fowler Pavilion”

The Fowler Pavilion

At the July 25th Village Board meeting, the Trustees unanimously approved the naming of the new third base building at Doubleday Field, the “Fowler Pavilion” in honor of 2022 HoF Inductee Bud Fowler.

The motion was made by Mayor Ellen Tillapaugh, on the recommendation of the Doubleday Field Committee, at which Friends of Doubleday President and former Village Mayor, Jeff Katz had made the initial suggestion.

Mayor Tillapaugh noted that she felt that Dave Winfield’s speech for Bud Fowler’s induction at Sunday’s HoF Ceremony, was excellent and highlighted not only Fowler’s local connection but also his importance in the history of Baseball.
