Playing ball on historical turf. ⚾⚾⚾ Today, the Fultondale Wildcats and Shades Valley Mounties faced off at Rickwood Field -- where baseball legends once played, including Willie Mays, Babe Ruth, Jackie Robinson, and Hank Aaron. For the Mounties, this is Year 4 of the Rickwood Classic, but for Coach Darryl Dunbar of Shades Valley High School, it’s a homecoming. Before leading the next generation, he played ball at Rickwood during his high school days.
