Logan Field was purchased in 1928, from the trustees of the Speedway Glens. It was named for James Logan who served as Mayor of the City for four years and was a pioneer in the playground movement.

The Babe Ruth baseball field that was constructed in 2000, is named after Marshall I. Silverman. Mr. Silverman is a lifelong resident of Worcester who has dedicated 32 years of his life to youth baseball. He was the coach of Jesse Burkett Little League for 5 years beginning in 1967. For the last 27 years he has been the coach and manager of the West Side Babe Ruth League. For 21 of the 27 years he has been the President of the league donating uncountable hours to the youth of Worcester.

The head of the Blue Square Trail, which leads to God's Acre and Tetasset Ridge, starts at Logan Field.
