Best Baseball Parks

One of the two remaining classic baseball stadiums, Wrigley Field is a fixed and beloved part of Chicago history. The "friendly confines," with its ivy-covered walls, bleacher bums, famous red sign, and manual score board is always filled with rabid Cubs' fans, rain or shine, day or night, no matter how the Cubs are doing in the standings. It's truly a vital part of baseball history.

One of only two classic stadiums left, Fenway Park has been around since 1912. The famous Green Monster in left field, its location right in the heart of Boston and easily accessible by public transportation, and its storied history make this stadium a must-see for any baseball fan.

There are no bad seats in this park -- even the nosebleeds give a good view of the action. Good Texas BBQ sandwiches and reasonable ticket prices also make this park a favorite family destination.

Built in 1992, Camden Yards is one of the most beautiful baseball parks out there today. The concessions are outstanding, and the park is very commuter-friendly with buses that take fans to the train station and public transportation, making it easy for city dwellers to come catch a game without having to worry about parking.

This stadium's open-air design provides fans with a wonderful view of the St. Louis skyline and the famous arch. The bright red seats enhance the Cardinals' fans attire, which is almost always overwhelmingly red. In every section, there are several rows that have fewer seats (e.g., three together), which is ideal for smaller groups. Overall, it's a very clean and comfortable stadium.
