Diamond Through the Decades: Steve Shields


Listen Later

As the Richmond Flying Squirrels wind down the final weeks of games at The Diamond, former Richmond Braves pitcher Steve Shields returned to town for part of the team's Diamond Through the Decades series. Shields was with the R-Braves from 1984-1986, which included the final season at Parker Field and the first two years of baseball at The Diamond. He was the starting pitcher for the R-Braves' first home game when The Diamond opened on April 17, 1985.
