On August 9, 2005, in recognition of Leo Pinckney's life-long commitment to baseball, Auburn, and Auburn baseball, the Auburn City Council unanimously passed a resolution naming the baseball field at Falcon Park "Leo A. Pinckney Field." Pinckney, a former sports editor and now a columnist with The Citizen, was instrumental in bringing minor league baseball to Auburn 45 years ago. In 1993 the New York-Penn League named one of its division after him, and in 1998 he was awarded the title "King of Baseball" by the National Association of Professional Baseball Leagues.
