hahahahaha! They had $2 ticket sales, and it still didn't reach 25% capacity... I went to the game with my son for $6 total... peanuts were $2 that day too.... lol
I love the fields with odd shapes, trees, poles , and hills in play. Weird stuff like that is what makes baseball more interesting to me than the other big sports.
As someone who goes to Dodger Stadium fairly regularly, I can confirm that the traffic is an absolute PAIN. Like exits backing up for at least a mile bad.

Interesting tidbit - the reason the Angels play in Anaheim is because of Walt Disney. The Angels originally played at Wrigley Field (Yes there was a Wrigley Field in Los Angeles) and when they became a major league team they shared Dodger Stadium for a few years. Gene Autry wanted a stadium of his own but had a hard time finding a location. He considered Long Beach but didn’t want the fans showing up in beach attire (how times have changed!). So at the suggestion of his dear friend, Walt Disney, he settled upon Anaheim and the rest is history. In fact Gene Autry did ask Walt Disney to co-own the team with him but Walt Disney turned him down, saying he didn’t want their friendship ruined because of something like a trade they disagreed with.
Wrigley Field in LA hosted the minor league Los Angeles Angels from 1925 to 1957. When the Dodgers moved to LA, the minor league Angels moved to Spokane, Washington, and became the Spokane Indians (which still exist as a Class-A team). The Major League Angels were established a few years later as an expansion team and played their first season at Wrigley Field in LA (1961). The facility was too small and outdated to be a viable home, so they moved to Dodger Stadium until Anaheim Stadium was built.
I and a friend have done all thirty and have always found something good about each but being in Houston for the first game after the Hurricane was by far the most memorable. Not going to lie we had both had to wipe away a tear or two that day.
personally I think no baseball fan can disrespect fenway even if they hate the sox. Simply because of its history in the sport. Its on my list of places to go someday.
the place to go if you like the color green. cy young pitched from that mound, as did babe ruth. ty cobb slud through those base paths. ted williams and carl yastrzemski secured triple crowns from that batter's box [maybe jd martinez]. rice, foxx, boggs, ortiz, pedro, fisk, lynn, dewey, el tiante, clemens, gator, manny and every visiting big league star for 106 yrs had that same view from home plate or the mound.
The Tampa Bay Lightning played there for a short time in the 90s until their hockey arena could be built. It's the only time I know of that hockey has been played in a dome made for baseball and football.
It's true though. If the Yawkeys still owned them, no way, no how would those four banners from the 21st century be up there! Why ANY Boston fan still defends them is a mystery to me.
Comerica Park's flagpole used to be in fair territory before they moved the bullpens there (the original dimensions were insane) - it was a nod to Tiger Stadium whose center field flagpole was always in play.
probably one of the smallest stadiums in the league, I remember my 8th grade trip to DC the Nats where playing the O's so we went and saw them in Baltimore
Its a shame they didnt mention the statues at OP@CY. Some of the greatest of the game immortalized as they were in their prime. Plus having Raven's stadium just a quick walk down Eutaw Street with the homage to the old Memorial Stadium along the way. All for a 12 dollar bargain night upper reserve seat. There is no better place in baseball.
@@theravens52 I agree. I grew up in Baltimore going to Memorial Stadium for O's and Colts games and moved away when I was 15. I did get to go to the Yards when I visited. Still the best stadium to watch a game. Ive seen M&T from the outside but not been inside
No, the green monster was built because they couldn't get any rights to take out the street directly behind the wall. To protect homerun balls from going over, they set up a net (which is why there's a ladder on the wall, which was used to retrieve balls stuck up there). After they added seats, they removed the net but kept the ladder.
AT&T Park (now Oracle Park, formerly Pacific Bell Park, SBC Park) was built during the Barry Bonds era and probably designed for it him and his towering homeruns. I've seen him hit a few Splash Hits into McCovey Cove. Such a sight to see.
PS The best thing that happened to the Trop was the Bolts playing hockey there back when it was still the Thunderdome. There were consistently 26,000+ fans in the stadium. Something the Rays can't even say. But, you know, Tampa (St Petersburg technically back then since that's where the sad excuse for a baseball stadium stands) isn't a hockey market. LOL

Safeco definitely smells like garlic fries. I’m a big baseball fan, been to 22 ballparks(including a few that no longer exist)and Safeco is one of the prettier ones.
As someone who lives in Houston I'd like to point out one glaring problem with Minute Maid Park that you missed. Since 2017 the left field wall has been covered in so many sponsorship billboards that you can barely see the train or the city skyline that made the stadium interesting and enjoyable when it first opened.
Dodgers stadium is that largest capacity, baseball only stadium (56,000 seats). had 3 million attendance the most times and reach 3 million 19 times in last 21 seasons.
Prior to the Covid nonsense of 2020, Dodger Stadium easily had the highest yearly attendance for any sports stadium on the planet, year after year after year. It sells out or comes close on a regular basis and currently has the highest capacity of any MLB stadium, plus no other sports league anywhere on the planet plays as many games yearly as MLB. As for access, a competing proposal for a ski lift type gondola that will take you to Union Stadium (not far as the crow/gondola flies) is actually more likely to happen than Musk's...thing, thereby connecting it to the Red and Purple Line subways, the Gold Line light rail, Metrolink commuter rail, and Amtrak medium and long distance trains.
@@Geotpf not a bad idea, I use the free bus from union station that drops you right in the parking lot and I don't know why more people don't just use that.
@@660ryamaha I do too, but they want to play games in the middle of summer and its just too hot and nobody goes to the game. At least the XFL plays there and soccer can play there also, I don't think they will be tarring it down anytime soon.
finally a video that tells it like it is about ancient dodger stadium, the least accessible of any major sports venue anywhere. the parking costs more than the cheapest tickets, the food is among the worst in the majors, and you get to walk up and down hills after your two hour drive through city traffic jams. no wonder locals like anaheim or even petco better.
Angels: Can we get a new stadium? Anaheim: Technically your stadium has been rebuilt twice... So it is new... Angels: Hello Tustin, Hello Long Beach...
No homer but Dodger Stadium is the coolest (only stadium that's carved into the geology of the neighborhood). AT&T is nice too (only good thing to say about the Giants)
TyliteTony Dodger Stadium parking lot is a nightmare though lol... and yeah traffic around the stadium is awful, why do you think LA fans arrive in the 3rd and leave in the 7th? 😛
Been to only two Major League ballparks: Wrigley and apparently I was taken to Comiskey when I was a baby. I've been to three Minor League parks: Schaumburg Flyers (now defunct), Kane County Cougars, and I can't remember the third one.
Not only do we Sox fans have to deal with that horrible name... THE LOGO IS A BIG RED DOWN ARROW. Still no matter how much they hurt me they are my team always.
"Legendary Stadium" that reeks of piss and cheap beer, filled with plastic fans and drunk frat bro's who would do slip n' slides down the urinal troughs up until a few years ago.
I have been to both of the baseball stadiums in Chicago. I prefer Wrigley Field since I am a Cubs fan, but I can say as a baseball fan that Guaranteed Rate Field is actually pretty cool despite housing the Chicago White Sox. Guaranteed Rate Field even has the old showers from Comiskey Park but revamped so they are more modern and they can be used to cool you off on a hot day because it's like the only part of Chicago that doesn't seem to get a lake breeze.
As a cubs fan, wrigley is better, but as a guy whose father gets a lot of front row tickets to sox games and suites from his job, my experience there is better than my experience at wrigley. So I can’t even compare them fairly-
I'm an Oakland Athletics fan and I was just waiting for our stadium to get destroyed by your review, I'm surprised you didn't label it as the worst ballpark in mlb or something along those lines.
Fun little fact about AT&T Park (Or Oracle now I guess) is that because it’s so close to the bay a lot of seabirds live there and will begin circling the field in mass near the end of night games. The birds have sorta worked out when the games end and will swoop in for food once everyone starts leaving
So I live in KC, but I’m a diehard yankees fan. I’ve been to Kaufman stadium at least 25 times. I’ve been to Yankee Stadium once. It’s cool, but it lacks any special thing in particular. On the other hand, Kaufman is my favorite stadium even though I’m not a huge royals fan. It’s big, it’s got a great scoreboard, the fountains look great, and it’s just overall a great environment.
I live in Pgh and like riding my bike down there on fireworks night. Worked there the first season it opened because I used to go to about 20 Pirates games a year and figured I may as well get paid for it. Anyways, all the visitors I talked to said the park was beautiful and were only there to check it out, nobody cared about watching the Buccos lol.
I live in Toronto and I would love to go, so far I’ve been to Fenway, wrigley, conerica , new yankee stadium, but I want to go on a trip to pnc and progressive
I feel like Globe life Park wasn’t given enough credit... the fireworks shooting out of the lights, the hotel behind centerfield, the adds on top, the food and the balcony is by far what makes that park so special in my heart really sad too see it go
Walking in to a hockey rink is a experience also, the sudden change in temperature, the bright white ice, going to live hockey is the most different sport to watch live vs TV.
6:39 Thank God. That hill made it impossible to hit a home run to centre field and I hoped for years it would go away and now it's gone. I associate that hill with the Astros sucking for so many years. They finally won a World Series in the first year it was removed. Coincidence? I think not.
That inaccessibility was an old school charm, as was the quirk of a hill and a pole in play. Now, the playing field is nothing special. It was better with Tal Hill.
I’ve sat behind home plate at Coors Field in Denver. There is absolutely nothing like the view of the sun going down behind the mountains, visible behind the center field bleachers. I’m actually a Tigers fan and one criticism I have of Comerica is they didn’t make the lower deck steep enough. If your a shorter person, you might not be able to see behind the person sitting in front of you.
WTF is with all the typos for Tropicana Field? Corrections: Capacity: 25,000 (41,000 with tarp removed) Location: St. Petersburg, FL Surface: Astroturf Team: Tampa Bay Rays Opened: 1990 Roof type: Fixed Dome Also it didn't sit empty for 8 years. The Lightning played there from 1992-95 until Amile Arena was built.
Didn’t do globelife near the credit it deserves. It is a child’s playground with all the games and activities you can play right behind center field. You can stroll all around the park and never miss a pitch while also partaking in endless sports games and competitions. Best park in all of baseball. I grew up in that stadium.
One of the most overlooked feature of Fenway Park is the curved right field fence. It's like a hockey rink. This matters because if there is a well hit ball down the right field line, the right fielder must make every effort to keep the ball from rolling all the way down the line, around the curve towards center field. I have seen a number of inside-the-park-home-runs hit that way.
Been to 19 parks. Petco Park was my fav, until I visited Camden. Then I went back to Petco again this year, and was remindedwhy I had it at the top. Camden is my 2nd fav tho.
Petco was mostly influenced by Camden Yards. Oh and fun fact they actually moved the Western Metal Supply building in left field to fit the dimensions of the park.
Fenway field and Wrigley field are 1A and 1B. And nothing else is in the category comes close to these two. However, the best of the rest would be (in no particular order) 2. Dodger Stadium, 3. SafeCo Field, 4. Camden Yards, 5. AT&T Park (now Oracle Park).
The flag pole at Comerica Park was in play as an homage to Tiger Stadium, which also had that feature. It's only out of play now because they moved the left field fence in to try to attract both free agent hitters and the All-Star game...

Rogers Center was also the final multi purpose stadium built on this continent. It was the home of the Toronto Argonauts of the Canadian Football League from 1989 to 2016. They moved to their new stadium, BMO Field, in 2017. Which is where CNE stadium once stood which was also home to the Blue Jays and Argonauts
And Garret Jones did in 2013. I met him later that summer and he said he was just hoping it stayed fair. Then in 2015, Pedro Alvarez hit one in the river on the fly. So Josh Bell had number 4 and 5.
@@crowtservo you are correct! That's a poke man! I think it's one of the cooler things in sports to try for when the big hitters come here to Pittsburgh.
Garret Jones has hit one into the river at PNC at the time of the publishing of the video. And Pedro Alvarez hit one into a boat that was moored in the river.
ALSO! Nobody has E V E R hit a baseball over the scoreboard at Wrigley Field. A golf ball was hit over it once and two footballs have gone over it (one thrown, one kicked).
The old Yankee Stadium was iconic..new one is nice, but looks too retro like..I love my YANKEES, but the stadium is more like a museum/mausoleum combination stadium .But I love it anyway..
Comerica had the flagpole in the field of play as a throwback to Tiger Stadium that had the same thing. The only reason it's no longed in the field is because they moved the bull pen from right field to left to A. add more seats, and B. shorten the ridiculous fences.
The arch in the background really is a nice aesthetic, and Busch stadium is always clean and relatively nice looking. Also, unrelated but didnt Wrigley have massive rats and crumbling superstructure a couple years ago?
Until reading the comments I didn’t realize how lucky I’ve been. I’ve attended all current 30 stadiums and 47 in total (including the ballparks no longer in use). The best is obviously Wrigley Field as it has the history and majesty of the old ballpark and the warm of “The Friendly Confines”. The worst ever was Olympic Park in Montreal where each seat was metal and had only one armrest per seat (which is tough to do when seats are next to each other). Anyway, enjoyed the video but you could have made it twice as long with more history and background on each park. It was a great overview.
8:30 “in what is the most Mets moment ever.” Me a few months ago: “wait, how?” Me a few months later after watching so many Mets videos: *oh now I understand*
The Green Monster wasn't built to keep people from looking in. It was built to keep balls from going out. When it opened, there was a used car lot next door. To keep the cars on display from being damaged by homeruns, The Green Monster was built because it was thought it would be impossible for balls to be hit out of the park.
5:27 now instead of Tal's hill, there's a camera in center so the Astros can steal signs.
They had to take it out it was blocking the camera
You have earned yourself a like
Oh, that's a banger.
The Astros said the World Series trophy was just a piece of metal when the dodgers won the World Series.

10:20 The Liberty Bell ringing when the Phillies win and/or hit home runs is the best part of CBPark.

Gee i just don't understand why people think americans are ridiculous
Critiquing stadiums: T-mobile park (safeco field): “ Garlic Fries “
you crazy...that sounded awesome!
Safeco definitely smells like garlic fries. I’m a big baseball fan, been to 22 ballparks(including a few that no longer exist)and Safeco is one of the prettier ones.
As someone who lives in Houston I'd like to point out one glaring problem with Minute Maid Park that you missed. Since 2017 the left field wall has been covered in so many sponsorship billboards that you can barely see the train or the city skyline that made the stadium interesting and enjoyable when it first opened.
Dodgers stadium is that largest capacity, baseball only stadium (56,000 seats). had 3 million attendance the most times and reach 3 million 19 times in last 21 seasons.
Prior to the Covid nonsense of 2020, Dodger Stadium easily had the highest yearly attendance for any sports stadium on the planet, year after year after year. It sells out or comes close on a regular basis and currently has the highest capacity of any MLB stadium, plus no other sports league anywhere on the planet plays as many games yearly as MLB.
As for access, a competing proposal for a ski lift type gondola that will take you to Union Stadium (not far as the crow/gondola flies) is actually more likely to happen than Musk's...thing, thereby connecting it to the Red and Purple Line subways, the Gold Line light rail, Metrolink commuter rail, and Amtrak medium and long distance trains.
@@Geotpf over 100 million people have attended a dodger game
@@Geotpf not a bad idea, I use the free bus from union station that drops you right in the parking lot and I don't know why more people don't just use that.
@@Geotpf it is not the highest for any on the planet bruh. Soccer is so much more popular and they’re stadiums are huge.
I’ve been going to “Globe Life Park” since I can remember. Construction on the new park next to it looks promising.
Wish they would have stayed with globe life park
@@660ryamaha I do too, but they want to play games in the middle of summer and its just too hot and nobody goes to the game. At least the XFL plays there and soccer can play there also, I don't think they will be tarring it down anytime soon.
The Elon Musk joke had me rolling 💀💀💀 do NBA arenas next
I’m from Wisconsin and I love Miller Park!!!!
but they had to go and change the name of it 🙄
@@owenlewis4402 I know right, the old name was the best
finally a video that tells it like it is about ancient dodger stadium, the least accessible of any major sports venue anywhere. the parking costs more than the cheapest tickets, the food is among the worst in the majors, and you get to walk up and down hills after your two hour drive through city traffic jams. no wonder locals like anaheim or even petco better.
I’ve been to Citi Field like a year after it opened. Loved the place,
Angels: Can we get a new stadium?
Anaheim: Technically your stadium has been rebuilt twice... So it is new...
Angels: Hello Tustin, Hello Long Beach...
went to my first pro game at Old Angels stadium back in 71
those mike trout and albert pujos contracts will keep that new stadium idea at bay for a while.
No homer but Dodger Stadium is the coolest (only stadium that's carved into the geology of the neighborhood). AT&T is nice too (only good thing to say about the Giants)
jasonfire34 how about petco. Petco and at@t are probably the best. Dodgers stadoum has a terrible location tho. But parking is ez in dodgers stadium
TyliteTony Dodger Stadium parking lot is a nightmare though lol... and yeah traffic around the stadium is awful, why do you think LA fans arrive in the 3rd and leave in the 7th? 😛
jasonfire34 well yea ik traffic is terrible in LA. But look at petco park... Even worse its IN DOWNTOWN. Sooo crowded. But i love petcp park lol
TyliteTony If you take the trolley petco isn't that bad $5 and you don't have to worry about traffic or overpaying for parking from $15-$30
oX DARKRAI Xo true.
Camden Yards is the best...still has an old school feel, even though it came in 93...the warehouse makes it iconic
Been to only two Major League ballparks: Wrigley and apparently I was taken to Comiskey when I was a baby. I've been to three Minor League parks: Schaumburg Flyers (now defunct), Kane County Cougars, and I can't remember the third one.
Not only do we Sox fans have to deal with that horrible name... THE LOGO IS A BIG RED DOWN ARROW. Still no matter how much they hurt me they are my team always.
And TBH unless you have field level seats, being at that stadium in general blows as well. It's not particularly interesting as a venue.
"Legendary Stadium" that reeks of piss and cheap beer, filled with plastic fans and drunk frat bro's who would do slip n' slides down the urinal troughs up until a few years ago.
Agree with the terrible name (Guaranteed Rate Field, where the interest is low), but the food is awesome.
its still a legendary stadium and baseball fans should still go visit
@@workingclassrunner I've always liked that stadium, and it's newest features. I hate the name of it, which is why I still call it COMISKEY.
I have been to both of the baseball stadiums in Chicago. I prefer Wrigley Field since I am a Cubs fan, but I can say as a baseball fan that Guaranteed Rate Field is actually pretty cool despite housing the Chicago White Sox.
Guaranteed Rate Field even has the old showers from Comiskey Park but revamped so they are more modern and they can be used to cool you off on a hot day because it's like the only part of Chicago that doesn't seem to get a lake breeze.
As a cubs fan, wrigley is better, but as a guy whose father gets a lot of front row tickets to sox games and suites from his job, my experience there is better than my experience at wrigley. So I can’t even compare them fairly-
I'm an Oakland Athletics fan and I was just waiting for our stadium to get destroyed by your review, I'm surprised you didn't label it as the worst ballpark in mlb or something along those lines.
charlieme5150 it’s also the worst ballpark in the nfl too!
@@nahimnotreal2544 Lol! Not for long though
It would instantly improve 1000% when the A's demolish Mount Davis.
Nah, Tropicana Field wins that for its carpeted warning track alone
I saw old photos of the stadium and it used to have a beautiful view of Oakland before they put Mount Davis.
Fun little fact about AT&T Park (Or Oracle now I guess) is that because it’s so close to the bay a lot of seabirds live there and will begin circling the field in mass near the end of night games. The birds have sorta worked out when the games end and will swoop in for food once everyone starts leaving
True
So I live in KC, but I’m a diehard yankees fan. I’ve been to Kaufman stadium at least 25 times. I’ve been to Yankee Stadium once. It’s cool, but it lacks any special thing in particular. On the other hand, Kaufman is my favorite stadium even though I’m not a huge royals fan. It’s big, it’s got a great scoreboard, the fountains look great, and it’s just overall a great environment.
You can thank Disney for the Angels still being in Anaheim, they bought the team and totally redid the stadium.
I LOVE PNC Park! You should go there.
I live in Pgh and like riding my bike down there on fireworks night. Worked there the first season it opened because I used to go to about 20 Pirates games a year and figured I may as well get paid for it. Anyways, all the visitors I talked to said the park was beautiful and were only there to check it out, nobody cared about watching the Buccos lol.
I live in Toronto and I would love to go, so far I’ve been to Fenway, wrigley, conerica , new yankee stadium, but I want to go on a trip to pnc and progressive
It's is a lovely park
@@liamfox8118 Comerica Park* Detroit Tiger fan here...
"One of the biggest criticisms of the park is access, as"
*video ends*
"you probably don't want to get lost in the area. Unless you're looking to score a dub"🤣
Smoke Weed everyday!!
I feel like Globe life Park wasn’t given enough credit... the fireworks shooting out of the lights, the hotel behind centerfield, the adds on top, the food and the balcony is by far what makes that park so special in my heart really sad too see it go
Same, I’m gutted that they aren’t playing there anymore
Do hockey rinks please!
Walking in to a hockey rink is a experience also, the sudden change in temperature, the bright white ice, going to live hockey is the most different sport to watch live vs TV.
i mean, wouldn't that also count for nba arenas, kinda?
Prudential Center has a bar made of ice. When you put your beer down, the surface melts slightly, creating a de facto coaster
@@Emperor.Penguin. only some
Lmao, hockey rinks are boring af
Fact about Busch Stadium: The Gateway Arch is cut out in grass in the outfield
BlueDevil42 only good thing about that stadium
@@jordanschwarzlose9218 Ballpark Village? Look it up
@@jordanschwarzlose9218 bruh. Busch is one of the most beautiful ballparks in the country
0:10 Me pretending to be WWE pro wrestler Edge v.s. One of my friends in the backyard! 😆
It’s cool how Minute Maid Park used to be a union station
Truly one of my favorite things i have ever done is walking up an looking the green monster. It has made me so happy. Truly a magical moment.
6:39 Thank God. That hill made it impossible to hit a home run to centre field and I hoped for years it would go away and now it's gone. I associate that hill with the Astros sucking for so many years. They finally won a World Series in the first year it was removed. Coincidence? I think not.
Actually they were planning to remove as early as the 2015-2016 offseason but they couldn’t since the Astros made the playoffs in 2015.
That inaccessibility was an old school charm, as was the quirk of a hill and a pole in play. Now, the playing field is nothing special. It was better with Tal Hill.
I always wanted to see someone hit a homer to straight away center field tho in tals hill , idk if it ever happend
Probably not so much the removal of the hill in centre field as the addition of a camera above centre field
Wait, I hear a trash can banging!
Tropicana field has a location of 31,042?
1:39 Opened: Tampa Bay Rays lol
SIR TOKES ALOT ( muh) was doing just that while enjoying this great video!!
Thank You!!
I’ve sat behind home plate at Coors Field in Denver. There is absolutely nothing like the view of the sun going down behind the mountains, visible behind the center field bleachers. I’m actually a Tigers fan and one criticism I have of Comerica is they didn’t make the lower deck steep enough. If your a shorter person, you might not be able to see behind the person sitting in front of you.
I wonder how many sports team fandoms see this video and feel pride when their field is mentioned vs how many cringe.
WTF is with all the typos for Tropicana Field?
Corrections:
Capacity: 25,000 (41,000 with tarp removed)
Location: St. Petersburg, FL
Surface: Astroturf
Team: Tampa Bay Rays
Opened: 1990
Roof type: Fixed Dome
Also it didn't sit empty for 8 years. The Lightning played there from 1992-95 until Amile Arena was built.
I thought I was the only one to catch that as well.
0:11 That killed him! My God that killed him! As God as my witness, he is broken in half!

@@krambone I see you are a man of culture as well
That man had a family
I’ve been to Safeco Field (now known as T-Mobile Park) 3 times, most recently in 2015. I’ve also been to Nationals Park, also in 2015.
Didn’t do globelife near the credit it deserves. It is a child’s playground with all the games and activities you can play right behind center field. You can stroll all around the park and never miss a pitch while also partaking in endless sports games and competitions. Best park in all of baseball. I grew up in that stadium.
One of the most overlooked feature of Fenway Park is the curved right field fence. It's like a hockey rink. This matters because if there is a well hit ball down the right field line, the right fielder must make every effort to keep the ball from rolling all the way down the line, around the curve towards center field. I have seen a number of inside-the-park-home-runs hit that way.
As an Orioles fan I have to say Petco Park was pretty damn noice from the one time I went
Been to 19 parks. Petco Park was my fav, until I visited Camden. Then I went back to Petco again this year, and was remindedwhy I had it at the top. Camden is my 2nd fav tho.
Petco was mostly influenced by Camden Yards. Oh and fun fact they actually moved the Western Metal Supply building in left field to fit the dimensions of the park.
@@PeterPapineau3 It was the Showley Bros Candy Factory Building that was moved. The Western Metal Supply building was incorporated where it sat.
You got the part about the green monster wrong. It was built to keep balls from hitting cars in the parking lot across the street.
I thought it was built to keep a giant green monster from invading
Kevin R. Yeah same
I has two purposes
It was for what he said too
i thought thats what the net was for (before they put seats there)
Fenway field and Wrigley field are 1A and 1B. And nothing else is in the category comes close to these two. However, the best of the rest would be (in no particular order) 2. Dodger Stadium, 3. SafeCo Field, 4. Camden Yards, 5. AT&T Park (now Oracle Park).
The flag pole at Comerica Park was in play as an homage to Tiger Stadium, which also had that feature. It's only out of play now because they moved the left field fence in to try to attract both free agent hitters and the All-Star game...
Here’s my park rankings of the parks I’ve been to
3. Citizens Bank Park
2. Yankee Stadium
1. Camden Yards
Pnc is incredible you should go. Best park in America, an amazing view (best in b-ball), and not a single bad seat
Citi Field is a fantastic stadium, say what you want about the Mets, they sure know how to attract fans!
No Wrigley Field waooo
Go Phillies

Good stuff loved the video especially Rodgers center in Toronto
Rogers Center was also the final multi purpose stadium built on this continent. It was the home of the Toronto Argonauts of the Canadian Football League from 1989 to 2016. They moved to their new stadium, BMO Field, in 2017. Which is where CNE stadium once stood which was also home to the Blue Jays and Argonauts
Cool video! My home stadiums are Camden Yards and Nationals Park. Go see the Orioles for the heroin, and the Nationals for the crack.
Josh Bell blasted two into the Allegheny on a fly within two weeks a few weeks ago...it was absolutely epic
And Garret Jones did in 2013. I met him later that summer and he said he was just hoping it stayed fair. Then in 2015, Pedro Alvarez hit one in the river on the fly. So Josh Bell had number 4 and 5.
@@crowtservo you are correct! That's a poke man! I think it's one of the cooler things in sports to try for when the big hitters come here to Pittsburgh.
Come down to bush stadium, wait Budweiser, no bud light, no, oooh what the hell just call the stadium dumpster fire, great video bud
had the great opportunity of staying in the hotel in rogers center. that stadium is amazing and i’m not even a jays fan.
7:44 thats... the AT&T Park, the AT&T Stadium is located in Arlington Texas and its home for the Dallas Cowgirls
Even though dodger stadium is old it’s the most beautiful and well maintained stadium in mlb
The Ray's where called Tampa Bay Devil Ray's when they opened
Garret Jones has hit one into the river at PNC at the time of the publishing of the video. And Pedro Alvarez hit one into a boat that was moored in the river.
Derick detrich hit 2 in one game (idk how to spell his last name)
Who cares ? It's still an overrated dump. And the Pirates have always sucked
This is one of my favorite channels
Thanks !
@@FivePointsVids thanks for replying your so cool 😀😁
ALSO! Nobody has E V E R hit a baseball over the scoreboard at Wrigley Field. A golf ball was hit over it once and two footballs have gone over it (one thrown, one kicked).
Hell, throw cash around in the area outside of Nats Park. That neighborhood's been gentrified to hell and back.
Just don't cross the river.
Chase Field Pool pee comment is absolutely true
Some say it will remain until our next world series win
Never forgive
Never forget
Goldy will get you there one day
D Backs will never win anything again now that Chase Field made the switch to a synthetic field.
The old Yankee Stadium was iconic..new one is nice, but looks too retro like..I love my YANKEES, but the stadium is more like a museum/mausoleum combination stadium .But I love it anyway..
Did they tear it down?
But you need to take out a second mortgage to afford tickets parking and food. 😀
Comerica had the flagpole in the field of play as a throwback to Tiger Stadium that had the same thing. The only reason it's no longed in the field is because they moved the bull pen from right field to left to A. add more seats, and B. shorten the ridiculous fences.
Tropicana Field is one of a kind. Gotta love that 31,042 playing surface first used in Tampa Bay Rays in 31,042.
Busch Stadium is beautiful, you must be a Schlub fan.
I live in the Shit Louis region, and even I think it's not attractive.
The arch in the background really is a nice aesthetic, and Busch stadium is always clean and relatively nice looking. Also, unrelated but didnt Wrigley have massive rats and crumbling superstructure a couple years ago?
He sounds like itty bitty baby 👶 bear 🐻 fan.
Until reading the comments I didn’t realize how lucky I’ve been. I’ve attended all current 30 stadiums and 47 in total (including the ballparks no longer in use). The best is obviously Wrigley Field as it has the history and majesty of the old ballpark and the warm of “The Friendly Confines”. The worst ever was Olympic Park in Montreal where each seat was metal and had only one armrest per seat (which is tough to do when seats are next to each other). Anyway, enjoyed the video but you could have made it twice as long with more history and background on each park. It was a great overview.
There was a time when Olympic Park was a good stadium though
8:30 “in what is the most Mets moment ever.”
Me a few months ago: “wait, how?”
Me a few months later after watching so many Mets videos: *oh now I understand*
The Green Monster wasn't built to keep people from looking in. It was built to keep balls from going out. When it opened, there was a used car lot next door. To keep the cars on display from being damaged by homeruns, The Green Monster was built because it was thought it would be impossible for balls to be hit out of the park.
Target Field gets short shrift here... it is amazing!
