Beaumont Exporters (Texas League) (1929-1955)

Stuart Stadium was a ballpark located in Beaumont, Texas and home to the Texas League Beaumont Exporters from 1929 to 1955 except for 1943–1945 when the Texas League ceased operations during World War II. The Lamar Cardinals baseball team also used the stadium as their home field for the team's first three seasons (1952–1954).[2] The stadium was demolished in order to use the stadium grounds as the site of the Stadium Shopping Center.[3]
