The sign simply states that Fuller Field has the world's oldest baseball diamond in continuous use, as recorded in the Guiness Book of World Records.
The Guiness World Records site states that the diamond has been in use from 1878 to the present day for baseball.
At one corner of the field you enter through gates that mimic those you find at professional fields. The field currently is used dually for baseball and football (and maybe even soccer).
