Little League field dedicated in La Russa's name

Tony La Russa is no longer managing the Cardinals, but the impact he's had on St. Louis and the local community is still felt.

On Wednesday -- while La Russa was in town with the Arizona Diamondbacks -- he was honored as a Little League field was named in his honor.

"Tony La Russa Field is dedicated today for the families and kids of St. Louis. This field recognizes the contributions made by Tony La Russa to St. Louis both on and off the field. It was built for the enjoyment of all. May 27, 2015."
