Fire has destroyed the grandstands at a historic Southern California baseball field that appeared in “A League of Their Own” and other movies. The fire erupted late Thursday at Jay Littleton Ball Park in the city of Ontario, about 35 miles east of Los Angeles. The wooden grandstands dated to 1937 and attracted many film crews. The 1992 film “A League of Their Own,” starring Tom Hanks, Geena Davis and Lori Petty, among others, told the story of a women’s professional baseball team in the 1940s. Other notable films that used the ballpark include “Eight Men Out” and “The Babe Ruth Story.”
