Charlie Keller’s Yankeeland Farm was home to world-class trotters and pacers
The public knew Charlie Keller as a member of the New York Yankees outfield. He was stationed in left field. There was Joe DiMaggio in center and Tommy Henrich in right field. In Keller’s 10 seasons with the Yankees, the team won four World Series championships. The Middletown, Maryland native also was selected to five American League All-Star teams.

I read with interest Bob Madison’s article on Yankeeland Farm as I am a Frederick, MD, native and drove by the farm many times when growing up and living there. As I remember it was located on the corner of Yellow Springs Pike and Indian Springs Road. This is outside of Frederick past Ft. Detrick. I asked friends today at a get together in Frederick if it was on Jefferson Pike and they said no. Where did this information come from or did Chaz Keller sell the original farm and buy the one mentioned in the article?
