It was built as the home of the Lancaster Red Roses baseball team, who played in the Interstate, Piedmont, and Eastern Leagues through 1961.

Built in 1938, Stumpf Field is a simple ballpark with makeshift bleachers down each baseline.

The seating on both the first and third baselines is still in place, and most of its original wooden frame remains.

The team folded in 1961, and Stumpf Field has since been relegated as a local baseball and softball venue.
