Actual fact about McCormick Field In the late 50's it hosted stock car racing and in 58 hosted a Nascar Grand National series (now the Cup Series) race
I went to a few games in 2000s all over Pennsylvania. ALTOONA, ERIE, SCRANTON, HARRISBURG, LANCASTER, YORK, READING AND ALLENTOWN. All classic ballparks. Minor League Hockey in PA isn't bad either. READING ROYALS, HERSHEY BEARS, W-B/S PENGUINS, AND LEHIGH VALLY PHANTOMS.
@jeremylando40 it's important to remember that Hershey and Reading are not the same level of hockey and can not be compared to each other. I have been to 7 or 8 ECHL arenas so far, plan to eventually visit all of them. But so far out of the 7 or 8, Reading is the 3rd best
@@derekweaver6384 that’s a low bar maybe I’m just jaded by being local but the team is run like a circus and it’s honestly a chore going to games anymore and they are jacking up prices again
@@jeremylando40 I'm local too. Hell I'm a Royals Season Ticket Holder. As bad as you think the Royals organization is, it's no where close to as bad as others
One of my personal favorites that wasnt mentioned is Fluor Field in Greenville SC. The dimensions are a replica of fenway and you can sit on their slightly shorter green monster, which is really cool for a minor league park.
I live in San Antonio. When are the Missions going to build a stadium, and join the big boys? .... Or will we lose another team, which is a San Antonio tradition. Great video.
Nat Bailey Stadium in Vancouver BC is a hidden gem. Great setting at Queen Elizabeth Park, beautiful site lines especially on a summer evening. The Canadians set attendance records every year
Look at Flour Field home of the Boston Red Sox affiliate Greenville Drive. It has the minor-league big green monster in left field and “Shoeless” Joe Jackson’s home that he lived and died in on the first base side just outside the park.
I been fortunate to have been to 13 different minor league parks and 6 of 10 cactus league spring training parks....absolutely nailed it with your list🙂
Love this! I am European and try to visit the US every year. I ALWAYS make sure to visit a minor league game. Most recent: Lakeland Flying Tigers in Lakeland, FL and Palm Beach Cardinals in Jupiter, FL. Also visited the Binghamton Rumble Ponies last year (NY state).
As a Louisville resident, I really appreciate your summary of Louisville Slugger Field. You covered its strengths as a ballpark well. I have often glanced at the action there while riding home from my job across the River in… ahem… Indiana, not Illinois. Other than that goof, that was a fine look at our stadium.
Fresno has a great park for the Fresno Grizzlies which is single A now, and the Sacramento River Cats has nice views especially with the river and the tower bridge.
Going to watch the Omaha Cardinals play at Rosenblatt Stadium with my dad is a great memory. It was also home to the College World Series until it was torn down a number of years ago. Part of the bleacher seating was moved to the baseball field at my high school in Council Bluffs Iowa, allowing the stadium to live on, in a way. Now, as an Albuquerque resident, it was great to see the Isotope’s park make your list. The views of the Sandia and Manzano mountains are the perfect backdrop for watching a ball game. It was home to the Albuquerque Dukes(LA Dodgers AAA) before and the ‘Topes (Rockies)now. Between Omaha and Albuquerque I’ve been blessed to see many great players both playing in the CWS and working up through the minors. Thanks for the video!!
I played American Legion baseball at Jackie Robinson Stadium in Daytona Beach, Florida in the 1980s. You will also enjoy the minor league ballpark in Jacksonville, FL.
So glad that my hometown ballpark Baseballtown (Reading, PA) made the list. There’s so much history in that ballpark it’s a must visit if you’re a baseball fan.
I love that Asheville park. I saw a game there once, with great seats behind home plate. I did feel sorry for those teen-age players from Latin America (the Tourists were an Astros Class A team), deep in the mountains of NC.
As a Utahn, I grew up watching baseball at Smith's Ballpark (though it has gone by many names through the years). This is even where the then SLC Trappers had a 29 game winning streak in 1987. That is still the longest streak in baseball! Sadly, the Bees are moving elsewhere in the valley within a year or two, leaving the ballpark empty. We dont really know what will happen to it, but many locals (especially long-term residents) want to repurpose the structure just to maintain some of that history.
My parents took me to some Trappers games. At that time it was known as Derek’s field. Baseball has been played there for over 100 years. They do have plans for it. It looks like at least a partial tear down and used for women’s sports only. It’s really sad!
I went to a lot of Trappers games at Derks Field as a kid. Somewhere around here is my hat with the 29 on it. I'm bummed about the Bees' move from Smith's Ballpark.
Smith's Ball Park is not one of the newest and didn't open in 1994 like it says in the video. It opened in 1927 and reopened in 1947 after a 1946 fire. 1994 is when it was renamed as Smith's
@@savagefund7706 It was actually totally demolished in the early nineties and was built new and opened in 1994 as Franklinquest field. Smith’s bought the naming rights in the 2010’s.
Dude, what a great video. You just state facts with no silly attempts at humor. Very informative and it honestly makes me want to visit many of these parks. You have a new subscriber.
I live in Sandy, Utah, so I go to Smiths Ballpark a lot of times, to watch a lot of Salt Lake Bees Baseball Games. You should do a review of Lindquest Field, in Ogden, Utah, home of The Ogden Raptors Baseball Team.
Pnc field home of the Scranton railriders, the view of the mountains in the background is nice. That, and for a AA stadium Hartford really had nice one as well. Very open concept.
Need to check out Canal Park, home of the Akron Rubberducks. A nice downtown park. Doesn't have the city views of some of the others but it sets up well to take in a game
Slugger Field in Louisville is a terrific place to watch a game Just knowing the bats that they’re using for the game are made 5 minutes down the road is awesome
Also been to many a game in Little Rock. Got to see Trout play a few games years back when I was visiting family. It was wild. It’s such a great ballpark too for potentially meeting players with the way the locker rooms are set up from the field.
I was surprised to see old Nat Bailey Stadium on your list. Spent a year in Vancouver in 1999 when they were a AAA team… seen 20 games that year. I’m including the PCL championship.
"That coaster out there in left field, the Cyclone..." Uh, hate to break it to you, but that (steel) coaster you see in left field is called Thunderbolt. The Cyclone is a wooden coaster and it's a lot further east. Also, glad you gave a shout-out to Victory Field in that set of "great view of the downtown skyline" ballparks. What makes Victory Field special is that it started the trend of bringing minor league parks closer to the city. Up to that point, the general trend had been to move minor league baseball teams to the suburbs, far away from the city center. Indianapolis decided instead to move from their old home at Bush Stadium--about two miles from downtown--to just outside of downtown proper. They bucked a major trend in doing so, and also started a new one. As for Fifth Third field... blame the bank who bought the sponsorship rights for that name. Fifth Third Bank isn't a small bank, either.
Modern Woodmen Park, fka John O' Donnell Stadium in Davenport, IA consistently wins best minor league ballpark and for good reason. It sits right on the Mississippi and offers great views, a giant ferris wheel and many other cool amenities.
Back in the 80's, Grainger Stadium in Kinston NC was awesome. Loved Ned Skelton Stadium in Toledo, better than what replaced it. And last but not least, Owen Bush Stadium in Indianoplace. Best ever!
Thanks for adding modern woodman. Visited the place twice. I love ballparks that offer river bombs. The ammentities are top notch for developmental baseball. Feels like an sec ballpark tbh.
Grew up going to the Lake Elsinore Diamond, home of the Lake Elsinore Storm, A affiliate of the San Diego Padres. It’s a nice little stadium, definitely has a sort of Major League feel to it despite being quite small.
I live in Las Vegas and the Aviators ballpark is really great. The mesh seats are very comfortable, the giant video board is great, theres a nice little plaza with Foosball and Ping Pong, a pool and splash pad, and really tasty Waffle fries! The views from the outfield side of Red Rock Casino and the rugged mountains and fiery sunsets are great too. And they do a nice fireworks show every month. One time I was at a game and a home run splashed into the pool.
Southwest University Park is an awesome stadium it’s a fantastic place to watch a baseball game. The backdrop was much better when you could see the Franklin Mountains but now they have built a bunch of hotels blocking the view! 17:33
Good job on the video. I’m lucky to live near modern Woodham Park. It’s just an hour away. I just went there tonight. I go there a couple times a year. And I’m near the field of dreams. Now I want to go to a lot more parks and get more MILB hats.
Been to McCormick a long time ago, FNB and Nat Bailey a few years ago were terrific. Smith's in 2022 did not disappoint. Probably 50+ overall. Hope to get to a few more this summer.
Tulsa Stadium pronounced One-Oak, haha. Surprised OKC not there for the Micky Mantle and Johnny Bench statues and downtown location, but it faces away from the skyline and was overbuilt, last time I was there much of the upper deck seats were covered in tarps.
If you go to a Senators game in Harrisburg, PA, be prepared for the rain of mayflies. You get used to it if you're not in a covered seat but it's kind of a shock the first time.
Four Winds Field in south bend indiana is a kinda cool venue to take in a game and has some good food options and attempts to give a bigger city feel or wrigleyville feel to the stadium.
ABC Supply Stadium in Beloit Wisconsin, the home bark of the Beloit Sky Carp , the high A affiliate of the Miami Marlins is an absolutely beautiful new ball park.
Along with Smith's Ballpark, Rice-Eccles Stadium on the U of U campus, and America First Field, home of MLS's Real Salt Lake, both have unbeatable views as well.
I’m a Rough Riders fan, so I have a great connection with Dr. Pepper Ballpark, now known as Riders Field. I even saw the Commissioner’s Trophy there!!! The Texas Rangers’ Commissioner’s Trophy!!!!!! Believe me when I say it’s more beautiful than it looks on tv!!!!!!
As a native of Amarillo, Hodgetown is always a fun place to catch a game (may be a bit biased😂😂) excited to see them here nonetheless. From the announcing to different places to watch to making easily navigable after the game if you want to do something after the game downtown
I would definitely recommend attending a Cyclones game if visiting NYC. Tickets are affordable and the stadium is set a stones throw from the beach... nice ocean breeze during the summer. There's plenty to do before or after the game in the surrounding area, especially if you have children. Several subway lines will get you to Coney Island that run 24 hours. If you're staying in Manhattan about 45-60 min train ride depending on your location.
I also would recommen taking a free ride on the Staten Island ferry and going to a Staten Island Ferry Hawk game. They play in the independent Atlantic league. The stadium has stunning views of New York Harbor and lower Manhattan.
Cody, Check out Carilion Field at Salem Memorial Ballpark in Salem, Virginia. Home of the Salem Red Sox, Single-A. Home of the Little Green Monster and beautiful view of the Blue Ridge Mountains.
The only minor league parks I've been to are Tucson Electric Park, Daniel Fawley Stadium in Wilmington, DE, and ShoreTown Ballpark in Lakewood, NJ. All 3 are neat in their own way but the one in Delaware is kind of plain and bland. So was TEP. The one in Lakewood has an amusement park in it which is cool.
Was very disappointed not to see Four Winds Field (unless I missed it) High A affiliate of the cubs. I've been to plenty of stadiums but Four Winds Field is one of my all time favorites. With the rooftop seats out in left field and the performance center in right field. There's just a unique atmosphere around the entire field
Joseph p Riley jr park in Charleston, SC is the best minor league park I have ever been to. Also the dogs that call it home are back to back to back champions 😊
You forgot to mention Hoover Met also home of the Birmingham Barons it after Rickwood Field and before Region field and where Michael Jordan played baseball in 1994
Richmond County Bank Park was also as Maimondies Park which was on Statin Island which was for a short season Yankees Team and was a top rated ball ballpark and appeared in the movie the King Of Statin Island unfortunately the short season minor league baseball was eliminated and this park is no longer part of major league baseball
Just a note on the park on City Island in Harrisburg.....the park was built facing away from the city so you dont get any views of the small Harrisburg skyline.
The majority of Bull Durham was filmed IN Durham, NOT Asheville...Do your RESEARCH!! You look FOOLISH
Thank you for your COMMENT
Actual fact about McCormick Field
In the late 50's it hosted stock car racing and in 58 hosted a Nascar Grand National series (now the Cup Series) race
He only said it was a filming location for the movie. He didn’t say how much of it was filmed there. But part of the movie was filmed there
why are you so mad?
One person looks foolish- but it isn't who you think it is. Particularly since he did address the stadium you're so angry about.

Honestly Hershey sets the bar for minor league hockey and the Royals show what not to do
P N C Field REALLY got great with their remodel!

Yeah, ridiculous he throws trashville and charlotte in the list but not Greenville
Disappointed to not see Sahlen Field in Buffalo. Home to the Blue Jays during Covid; this EXPANDABLE ballpark was the inspiration for Camden Yards.
Agreed

I've been to Altoona's ballpark multiple times since it opened, and just about every time, I find myself becoming mesmerized by the roller coaster.
Sahlen Field in Buffalo, Triple A for the Blue Jays, is a great view with the interstate going by in the outfield
McCormick Field is a must visit. Spend a few extra bucks and sit in the dugout suites.

Fun fact about McCormick Field, it once hosted NASCAR races in the 1950's, it explains why there's a concrete ring inside the field.
one great thing at Blue Wahoos stadium in pensacola that you get no where else. On Sunday games, the Navy Blue Angles buzz the field.

10:08 that’s the Durham Bulls Athletic Park. The original DAP closed a long time ago.
And yes…. Their brewery is still open.
The DAP is not completely closed. It hosts occasional HS games unless policy has changed over the past year.
Really glad to see the love for Asheville and Charlotte as a western north carolinian! Hope you rank milb logos soon!

Norfolk Tides (Orioles AAA) Stadium is cool to check out, too!
I'm a little biased since they're basically my hometown team, but I love Dunkin' Park and the Yard Goats. Thank you for including them in this video.
Catching a late afternoon game in Pensacola when the breeze picks up on the bay is hard to beat

I prefer OKC to Tulsa. I enjoy the classic brick. OKCs park was modeled after the Orioles ball park.
If you go to a Senators game in Harrisburg, PA, be prepared for the rain of mayflies. You get used to it if you're not in a covered seat but it's kind of a shock the first time.
Virginia Credit Union Stadium in Fredericksburg,VA. Home of the Nationals’ A affiliate is a great little park.
Four Winds Field in south bend indiana is a kinda cool venue to take in a game and has some good food options and attempts to give a bigger city feel or wrigleyville feel to the stadium.

Modern Woodman stadium (quad cities il/iowa) has a great view
Dang I had to scroll back through because I thought for sure I missed Bricktown Ballpark in OKC but it didn’t make the cut :(
Chattanooga Lookouts have a beautiful stadium on the river
I’m a Rough Riders fan, so I have a great connection with Dr. Pepper Ballpark, now known as Riders Field. I even saw the Commissioner’s Trophy there!!! The Texas Rangers’ Commissioner’s Trophy!!!!!! Believe me when I say it’s more beautiful than it looks on tv!!!!!!
I know that isn't a minor league stadium, but the Stade Canac, home of the Québec City Capitales, is very great
As a native of Amarillo, Hodgetown is always a fun place to catch a game (may be a bit biased😂😂) excited to see them here nonetheless. From the announcing to different places to watch to making easily navigable after the game if you want to do something after the game downtown
Definitely should check out day air ballpark home of the Dayton dragons (reds high A affiliate) it’s a lot like Huntington park
Of course being from Reading PA I definitely love First Energy Stadium.
Damn, imagine choosing asheville and charlotte and not even considering the best stadium in the southeast in greenville
I would definitely recommend attending a Cyclones game if visiting NYC. Tickets are affordable and the stadium is set a stones throw from the beach... nice ocean breeze during the summer. There's plenty to do before or after the game in the surrounding area, especially if you have children. Several subway lines will get you to Coney Island that run 24 hours.

I love Huntington park-AMAZING FIELD
The Charleston Riverdogs have a incredible stadium
Should feature Wahconah Park in Pittsfield, Mass. That’s one of the oldest still standing. Jim Bouton tried buying it years ago.

Check out Carilion Field at Salem Memorial Ballpark in Salem, Virginia. Home of the Salem Red Sox, Single-A. Home of the Little Green Monster and beautiful view of the Blue Ridge Mountains.
Need to check out Harbor Park, home of the current triple A world champion Norfolk Tides!
Great choice in videos! Can’t wait to see the list!
The only minor league parks I've been to are Tucson Electric Park, Daniel Fawley Stadium in Wilmington, DE, and ShoreTown Ballpark in Lakewood, NJ. All 3 are neat in their own way but the one in Delaware is kind of plain and bland. So was TEP. The one in Lakewood has an amusement park in it which is cool.
Never went to see a game at it but Chickasaw Bricktown Park is asthetically one of the coolest parts of OKC.
11:19 Those bridges over the Ohio River go to Indiana, not Illinois
Was very disappointed not to see Four Winds Field (unless I missed it)
High A affiliate of the cubs. I've been to plenty of stadiums but Four Winds Field is one of my all time favorites. With the rooftop seats out in left field and the performance center in right field. There's just a unique atmosphere around the entire field
we have AAA ballpark which is nice and it was right down the road from where I used to live
Hodgetown's art deco goes perfect with route 66.

The orange steele coaster you see at brooklyn isnt the Cyclone. The Cyclone is a much older wooden coaster.
