Inscription. The Bethesda Community Base Ball Club sold 606 seats plaques to help support the construction of Shirley Povich Field in 1999. As part of a campaign to refresh Povich Field in 2018-2019 in honor of our 20th season, the seats in the home plate grandstand were replaced. With great appreciation to the donors of 1999 who helped make it possible to build Povich Field, we are displaying the original 1999 plaques from the grandstand behind home plate here.

Erected 2019 by Bethesda Community Base Ball Club.
