Safeco is the only one of these five I’ve been to, and while the retractable roof was kind of cool (it started raining during the game, so I got to see it in action) it was otherwise a pretty bland ballpark experience. I love Seattle, and wish they’d been able to incorporate more of the Pacific NW dynamic into a stadium that, honestly, feels like it could be anywhere.
Please share your explanation for not putting PNC Park in the top 10. And please let the answer not be “because the Pirates suck.” A number of pundits have declared it the best park in baseball.
Don’t get me wrong, PNC is a very nice ballpark, and the view beyond the centerfield wall is awfully nice, but the ballpark itself reminds me a lot of Comerica Park. I know it gets a lot of praise, and all of it is surely deserved, but for me, it’s just not in my wheelhouse and is well-placed for my list. It has nothing to do with the team they put out there, either. Thanks for reading!
I hate the Mets, but Citi Field is one of the best parks in baseball – fan friendly, fabulous food…now new Yankee Stadium is crap…but that’s just me…
And the Trop is the crappiest field in baseball, but it’s still a sight to see…shag carpet baby!
You should move Coors Field to your top 10. It is really beautiful, nicely laid out, surrounded by some of the best microbrew beer on the planet, and did I mention beautiful? The view rocks (pun not intended, but it works so I’m going with it.)
Ya know, Coors was tough to keep out of the top 10. The luster of it may have been lost a little bit because while I’ve not seen a game there, I did tour the field in ’01 or ’02. It’s a huge ballpark, and I think it’d be cool to sit in the mile-high row. Coors was hard to keep out of the top 10.
Nationals Park is beautiful. I can only assume Camden Yard is in the top 5. Baltimore has the best stadiums.
GoonSquadSarah will vouch for the fact that I’m on a personal mission to make everyone fall in love with my adopted city. Come to Pittsburgh. Your beer, a little Primanti’s and ticket are on me.
