The Forgotten Ballparks

When you think of the classic ballparks in baseball, you think of Chicago's Wrigley Field, and Boston's Fenway Park. And while both parks, I'm sure, are great, we often seem to forget the other classic parks. Other than the fine people from Michigan, I doubt anyone really remembers Tigers' Stadium up in Detroit, or even the Baseball Palace of the World on the south side of Chicago, Comiskey Park.

But its deeper than that. Other than local fans, a lot of great old ballparks have been forgotten. With old timers disappearing by the years, pretty soon there won't be anyone live that will remember the Polo Grounds, or Forbes Field. I'm here to help bring these stadiums back to life, in one aspect, if you will.

Griffith Stadium - Washington, D.C.

If you note the in-cave in center field, that was due to a woman who wouldn't sell her house, so the ballpark was built around it.

Ebbets Field - Brooklyn, NY

Connie Mack Stadium - Philadelphia, PA

Sportsman Park - St. Louis, MO
