I know that the Olympic stadium in Atlanta was converted from a track and field stadium to a baseball stadium and is now the home of the Atlanta Braves. In the 1970's it was common for football teams and baseball teams to share a stadium. This happened in places like Pittsburgh (Three Rivers Stadium), Cincinnati (Riverfront Stadium), Philadelphia (The Vet) and others. This is still the case in Oakland where the A's and the Raiders share the Oakland Coliseum.

^^TD Ameritrade Park, And the Johnny Rosenblatt Stadium is supposed to be demolished to make way for a parking lot for a nearby zoo. It cannot be reused.
