PATERSON, N.J. – The ballpark at the national park now has a team.
The New Jersey Jackals, a member of the independent Frontier League, an MLB Partner League, announced on Wednesday that beginning in 2023, they’ll play at historic Hinchliffe Stadium. Located beside Paterson’s Great Falls and within the boundary of the Paterson Great Falls National Historical Park, Hinchliffe Stadium is currently undergoing a $95 million renovation that is expected to be completed this year.
“The Jackal is out of the bag, because Hinchliffe Stadium now will be the new home of the New Jersey Jackals,” Paterson Mayor Andre Sayegh said in his opening remarks at a press conference on Maple St. outside the stadium.
