Question 7

Give the name of this stadium as it was known when it closed The traditional association of the Star Spangled Banner and baseball began during a World Series game at this stadium, though the home team was not playing in that World Series. This park's signature scoreboard was inspired by a pinball machine the then owner saw in a performance of William Saroyan's The Time of Your Life. This stadium hosted three MLB All-Star Games, but was the permanent host of the East-West All-Star Game for the Negro Leagues (1933-60). Identify this park, known as "The Baseball Palace of the World" which notably saw the second game of a doubleheader forfeited to the Tigers after a small riot broke out which ultimately hastened the demise of disco (which is a wholly good thing).
