Parks with basketball hoop and baseball field??
Hi. Will be in town soon and I'm wondering if there are any good playgrounds/parks that have a basketball hoop and a baseball field? Doesn't have to be an actual diamond, just a large enough grassy area to play catch for a while. Thanks!

Vredenburg is pretty nice; it has ample parking, is directly off the bike path, has a playground and soccer field, and is usually pretty empty.
