Ballparks Map: 811 Parks From the Majors to Wooden Relics
Fuller Field in Clinton, Massachusetts, built in 1878, carries the label “World’s Oldest Baseball Diamond”, and it sits in a layer called “Vintage Ballparks Still Standing” beside Ackley Park of 1939 in Elk City, Oklahoma, and Buckwalter Stadium in Meridian, Mississippi, marked “overgrown”, with a tip to walk to the grandstand from the frontage road. Mike and Gary of Ballpark Brothers sort 811 parks by level, from the majors through Triple-A, independent and collegiate summer leagues, and nearly every pin links to their write-up. “Gone But Not Forgotten” keeps Comiskey Park (1910-1991), Cooper Stadium in Columbus and Buffalo’s War Memorial Stadium, where The Natural was filmed. A last layer collects graves (Honus Wagner, Lou Gehrig, Shoeless Joe Jackson), the plaque on the apartment block that replaced Ebbets Field, and the Negro Leagues Baseball Museum, noted “Gary with Buck O’Neil”.
