Late country legend
Charley Pride has been honored with his own baseball field. The Texas Rangers have named part of their spring training complex in Surprise, Arizona after the singer, who was a part-owner of the team.
Pride, who lost his battle with COVID-19 last year (2020), was a pitcher for the Memphis Red Sox and Birmingham Black Barons of the Negro League in the 1950s before he turned his attention to country music.
