Dilboy Field, a recreation field in West Somerville, was dedicated to him in 1921. In 1953, Dilboy Stadium opened on the site. By the early 2000s, the stadium had fallen into disrepair. State Senator Charlie Shannon lobbied the state government intensively for the $8 million necessary to demolish and replace the stadium. Shannon died before the project's completion, and there were plans to name the replacement stadium after Shannon instead of Dilboy. The renaming was scratched after Somerville's Greek and military veteran communities spoke out in favor of retaining the name Dilboy. The replacement Dilboy Stadium opened in September 2006.
