[3] The ballparkThe Potashers played at Montgomery Field.[2][4] Longest Home Run? in HistoryAs reported in The Sporting News, Potashers player Gil Carter hit a majestic shot at Montgomery Field: "On a hot August night in 1959, former heavyweight boxer Gil Carter smashed a pitch through Carlsbad's high-elevated air and out of Montgomery Field. The ball carried over the left field wall, soared past two city streets and landed in a peach tree. A newspaper reporter later took an aerial photo from a plane and used the picture to estimate the ball traveled 733 feet. Carter's hometown paper, The Topeka Capital-Journal, said "the blast is considered the longest home run in baseball history."[5][6][7][8] Notable alumni
