Fifth Third Field
AKpilotEMT (VirtualGlobetrotting)
By: AKpilotEMT.
Currently ('06 season) the home field of the Toledo Mud Hens, the favorite team of Klinger from M*A*S*H. Toledo is in the International League and is the AAA affiliate of the Detroit Tigers.
(The lame name of the stadium is a local bank that bought the naming rights. Most certainly that bank will be bought by someone else eventually and the stadium will be renamed like so many sadly are nowadays. Remember when stadiums kept one name for their whole existence?!)

Toledo Harbor Light
Located at the mouth of the Maumee River, in Lake Erie, off Toledo, to mark the entrance to the Maumee River channel. The Toledo Harbor light was first exhibited May 23, 1904, and had been constructed to serve the increased traffic that resulted from the Toledo Harbor being dredged and enlarged in 1897. The Harbor Light replaced the nearby Turtle Island Light (1831-1904) that had previously marked the river entrance.
