The Archdiocese of Baltimore announced thirteen Catholic Schools will close at the school year's end, including Cardinal Gibbons High School. The site, formerly known as St. Mary's Industrial School, a school for "wayward boys," was where Babe Ruth played while in high school. The shutting has left the baseball diamond's future susceptible to sale and development.
