Baseball parks can be a magical place for fans and players. The MLB parks are all so different from each other. The vibes and energy of the parks can make the whole game better. These are just a few of the beautiful ballparks Major League Baseball teams have to offer.

The Orioles play at Camden Yards located in Downtown Baltimore, Maryland. The Orioles have been playing here since 1992. The view of this ballpark is insanely beautiful.
The Warehouse and Eutaw Street:
The Baltimore and Ohio Warehouse was built in 1899. When they decided to build this ballpark in this location, they thought it would be better to build around the warehouse rather than take it down. Between the warehouse and the stadium is Eutaw Street. When a player hits a home run and lands on Eutaw Street the player gets a plaque. Players like Gunnar Henderson, Juan Soto, and Rafael Devers are a few who have done this.

The Red Sox play at Fenway Park located in Boston, Massachusetts. The Red Sox have been playing here since 1912. Fenway is the oldest stadium in the MLB. It is one of the most famous and popular ballparks in baseball. It is also one of the smallest stadiums in the major league.
One of the most known things about Fenway Park is the Green Monster. The Green Monster is a huge green wall in left field. They added seats into this section which gives the stadium a capacity of 37,755.

Yankee Stadium, located in the Bronx, New York, has been home to the Yankees since 2009. Before it opened, they were playing at the old Yankee Stadium just across the street. That stadium was open from 1923 to 2008.
There is so much history in the stadium. Inside there is a museum full of Yankee history, with bats, jerseys, balls, and more from past and current players. In centerfield, between the two bullpens, is Monument Park. This is where all of the Yankees' retired numbers are and other plaques and monuments to honor past players.
Pittsburgh Pirates- PNC Park

Pirates player, Oneil Cruz, has already hit two home runs into the river this year. From the park, you can see the Roberto Clemente Bridge. In honor of Roberto Clemente, who was number 21 while with the Pirates, the wall in the outfield is 21 feet tall.

Home to the Diamondbacks, Chase Field is located in Phoenix, Arizona. The D-backs have been playing here since the team was formed in 1998. The park holds up to 48,519 people.
The pool suite at Chase Field makes the park so unique. The Crèmily Pool Suite holds 35 people. It is field level so you have a great view of the whole stadium and it is a great way to beat the heat. Chase Field also has other field-level suites such as the Batter’s Box Suite, Dugout Suites, and Home Run Porches.
San Francisco Giants- Oracle Park

The Giants play at Oracle Park located in San Francisco, California. The stadium opened in the year 2000 and can hold up to 42,300 people.
The park is right along the San Francisco Bay and there is a beautiful view of it from the stadium. On the upper deck, along the left field line, Oracle Park has the retired numbers of past Giants. The wall in the right field is 24 feet tall. This number is significant because it is the number Willie Mays wore when he played for the Giants.
