Originally named Municipal Field, the stadium was built in 1937, and officially dedicated in 1938, as part of a larger project of ball fields, grandstands, a playground and tennis courts constructed by the Works Progress Administration (WPA).[5] Billy Bullens was the assistant supervisor of the new facilities and in charge of the park maintenance for many years.[5] The field was renamed for him in the early 1980s.[6]

Bullens Field hosted the Babe Ruth 14-Year-Old World Series in 2016[7] and will host the Babe Ruth 13-Year-Old World Series in August 2019.[8]
