These ballfields honor Julio Carballo (1950-1996), who founded The Carballo Youth Baseball League in 1994, several blocks away at Bill Rainey Park. He was a community leader and Bronx resident who mentored children in the neighborhood and continued his League presidency even after he was diagnosed with cancer. Two years later, Carballo’s wife Milka Galarza took over management, and later enlisted her son Jose. The League regularly played games at Julio Carballo Ballfields.
