Springdale (AP) - Ground has been broken for a new baseball stadium that will be built in Springdale, courtesy of a $50 million bond package narrowly approved by voters.

 

Among those on hand for Wednesday's ceremony were Kansas City Royals owner David Glass and Wichita Wranglers owner Bob Rich.

 

Rich's Class Double-A, Texas League team is to move from Wichita for the 2008 season. The Wranglers are an affiliate of Glass's Royals. Glass is a former Wal-Mart chief executive officer. Rich owns the NFL's Buffalo Bills and other minor-league franchises.

 

The stadium is being built on former farmland. Officials predict the surrounding fields will soon give way to commercial development.
