Love how each ball park is unique. No other major sport has such variation between arenas and playing fields. Keeps things interesting and gives you a reason to check out other cities ball parks when on vacation.

The Western Metal Supply Co. building is really nice.

It's so weird that baseball, the sport heavily driven by statistics, doesn't have a regulation about the outfield.

So the rays just be chillin in their tank hoping not to get smacked with a home run ball lol

what i love about baseball is that not every field is the same like in other sports. stadiums are unique and cool

The Western Metal SC building was historic to SD and the initial plans was to get rid of it but the architects decided to incorporate and build the stadium design from the building. They actually had to turn the stadium more northward because of it. I think it's a cool feature and it's interesting the impact the building had on the construction of Petco Park. My favorite stadium in MLB!

1:15 “It’s going deep to right!!” *ball travels 200 feet for a HR

When you realize the Astros got rid of Tal’s Hill to set up the cameras in center field that they used to steal signs 👀

Nobody: People at polo grounds: I’m taking you 484 dead center

You should have put Bartolo’s homer in for the Metal Supply Co.

It's a shame Tal's Hill is gone. Was such a unique feature in MLB, resulting in so many astonishing plays and interesting base-running situations.

Imagine how many home runs barry bonds would have hit with a 258 fence in right field.

Something about the Western Metal bldg that is just so cool. It’s so reminiscent of an old vintage stadium from the 30’s or 40’s Great video, thanks for the tour !

3:10 I didn’t know Logan Paul played baseball

This is why Baseball is pretty much the only sport where home field advantage actually matters significantly. I always thought it was so awesome how every stadium has it's own unique quirk that can potentially make a drastic change to how hitters/fielders approach each game, with the home field team obviously having the advantage of knowing how to play the terrain. Wish other sports were like that

The Polo Grounds was called a great stadium for everything, except baseball.

Every ballpark have unique beauty

This is pretty hilarious. I'm not really a baseball fan, but I like stadiums. Yes, it is interesting that every baseball field and stadium is different. Who would ever think that an athlete could hit a ball into a tank of rays and it not be a gimmick.lol

How about the Speakers/PA System of The Kingdom in Seattle, WA? Fly balls were IN PLAY after hitting them and could still be caught in the air for an out after deflecting off the speakers. If ball landed landed in foul ground after hitting a speaker, it was a foul ball.

How do you not include Bartolo's home run in San Diego for Western Metal Supply Company?

R.I.P Tal's Hill.

I’d honestly love to talk to someone who works at the trop and see if a homer has ever killed a stingray. Imagine the pr nightmare if they had to get of rid of the whole tank because they were just chucking stingrays in the dumpster lol

The San Francisco Bay is not inside the stadium...500 IQ

I BELIEVE the stadium at 1:31 is that of Tiger Stadium (1912-1999) and not The Polo Grounds

The stadium at 1:30 is not the Polo Grounds, it's old Tiger Stadium in Detroit. Tiger Stadium deserved to have it's own section, highlighting the overhang in right field. That being said, fun vid!

The Warehouse in Baltimore

This was a neat video. I was never a big baseball fan, but I did stats for my high school. This is something I always enjoyed about baseball is how each place has its own set of rules dealing with the elements of the field. Our high school field was very ordinary and even for distances and shape of the park. So seeing these was really cool.

Just one of many reasons why I love baseball. Every park is different, and has its own quirks and features. 😁

lol I read this as, "weird ass stadiums" at first glance

Marlins Home run statue? Mets Home run apple?

For the Oakland Coliseum you also should’ve mentioned about the stairs that lead to nothing in the stadium

If you ever wanted to know why they call Willie Mays catch “The Catch”, start watching at 1:06.

Not to disrespect Eric Byrnes at all but he totally looks like the eldest, actually talented, third Paul Brother

Not quite the same, but when the roof is open at Safeco, it covers a nearby train track. This makes the train horns much louder in the stadium as the sound reflects off the roof and into the park. Its pretty awesome if you're there for it live, and I know I've heard it at least once on a broadcast game.

I wish there was a way for us to go back in time, and have current teams play in old parks. How cool would it be to see someone like Kiermaier try to cover all of CF in the Polo Grounds for example

Loved these areas of a baseball park. Always gave it some character!

The Metrodome. The ENTIRE Metrodome.

RIP Tal's Hill

This video BLEW MY MIND!!!!! Loved it, absolutely extraordinary!

Thanks for supplying decent video of both the Polo Grounds and Ebbets Field. Another park with a pool where home runs could land over the right field fence was Le Parc Jarry in Montreal.

The Oakland coliseum looked way better without Mt. Davis

Angels stadium rock fountain?

Really neat aspect of baseball. Hope all future stadiums include oddities like these.

Thank you for including the old footage, I was afraid I'd be able to see the ball in those.

3:15 When did Jake Paul become a professional baseball player?

You could also The Crawford Boxes from Minute Maid Park

I loved this video. Showed the personality each stadium has

This is one of the things that makes baseball great, not only are the buildings themselves more unique and interesting than any other sport. But the actual playing field can vary from place to place.

Wow, I had no idea baseball fields were that different from each other and had that weird stuff in them, like pools, trains, ivy, manta rays...

I love Padres field.

This areas are what make baseball so cool and unique, i'm from spain and I've recently discovered this sport and I love it in part this is because each play, homerun, stadium etc is different and that makes me want to watch and discover more

The mets apple should also be on this list, but great video!

4:05 acted like the damn ceiling was falling.

The Western Metal Supply Co. is one of my favorite stadium features in sports. Edit: I can't wait till the A's get a new stadium and get out of that dump.

I remmeber a phillies game at Wrigley where a ball was hit into the vines and two balls popped out... should've shown that one for the wrigley vines.

I do love these quirky ballparks. I'm not sure if there's any other sport other than tennis, golf, and racing where there can be such big differences between the playing fields.

rip tals hill:(

Where's Bartolo's home run? I feel like that's too iconic not to post. Especially since it was hit at Pet Co.

Great video. Love stuff like this.

This was a neat compilation

3:20 surprised his hat didn't fall off! If yout know you know 🤷‍♀️

Very good.

Nice video. You did great work on this

Interesting video. I'm pretty sure the old Yankee Stadium had a death valley of a left center field with monuments actually on the field. I was kid when my favorite team the Red Sox would play there but I seem to recall that.

2:28 I could've swore the spectator caught it and not the player

3:11 Logan paul played for the athletics. Cool

I'm born and raised in Long Beach 🌴 California, and born into a Dodgers family. Anyway I went to the opening day of San Diego versus Los Angeles Dodgers in 2013 and that is and was a moon 🌙 shot ⚾ by Hunter Renfoe! I've seen guys drill it upper deck, but when I saw that HR I was like damn what a shot. Being there even now with the Padres fences being brought in 15 feet a few years ago, and it is still a tough park. Definitely would be defined as a "pitchers park" whereas somewhere like Coors Field the ball flies out of the park. Baseball ⚾ is almost here!

I loved playing in the Polo Grounds in the video games. The poles are super short, but CF is like 500 feet away, it made for some crazy hits.

I love how the player watch where the ball goes in the vines and pretend they forgot their last name

5:11, I always wondered if someone hit one in the tank

Two weird ballparks I remember: the poles in centerfield supporting the upper deck bleachers at the old Tiger Stadium. And the “garbage bag” outfield wall they used to have in Minnesota.

This is what i've always loved about mlb is the quirky ballpark designs, the old Riverfront used to have this way of making a homerun ball bounce over the wall hit the second wall then curve back onto the field like a pingpong that was being slapped around.

So the San Francisco bay is a weird area INSIDE a ballpark?

RIP Tal's Hill at Minute Maid Astros are CHAMPS

Baseball stadiums have the most unique designs out of any sport itw. So many cool things inside them

I love when stadiums have unique dimensions/wall heights/unique areas like Tal’s Hill. It’s a shame that every new stadium seems to be so similar to all the others. I’d kill to have the polo grounds back.

What about the Hotel Rooms in the Blue Jays Stadium?

And Logan Paul with the amazing catch 3:15

Cincinnati's Crosley Field had an incline in left field. At one time, if a ball got stuck in the ivy at Wrigley Field, it was in play. It's now a ground rule double.

Nice you overlooked the water spectacular that has been at Kauffman Stadium since 1973

You could add The Triangle in Fenway, too.

Do the outfielders just give up if it goes in the vines 😂

I remember in MLB The Show, I was playing at Oakland at home, I had a runner at first and third, the pitcher picked off but missed the first baseman’s glove and the runner scored and I walked it off 😂

Petco (Padres stadium) also has the "Park in the Park" just beyond the right field stands. You can bring a picnic blanket or folding chairs, has access to bathrooms, a hot dog stand, and mini baseball field for the kids to play around on. Cost like $5 to get in. Great if you're in downtown for dinner and just want to catch a few innings for cheap.

Do best announcer catchphrases, like Ken Harrelson “you can put it on the board yes!”

Rip tals hill

I enjoyed this unique compilation

Eric Byrnes @ 3:06 ...Now THAT'S a catch. I miss Tal's Hill BTW

3:10 Byrnesy sticks out to me

Right field metrodome

I just really love american baseball stadiums, on one side, they're a normal field and on the other, just pure architectural anarchy, those stadiums can literally be WHATEVER THEY WANNA BE

I love San Diego's stadium. My brother in law knew one of the contractors who built it and he was given a set of blue prints of the layout. Very cool

I don't want to be technical... but isn't McCovey Cove outside the stadium?

Did you know there is a tunnel underground leading from Kauffman Stadium to Arrowhead in Kansas City

Shoutout to the conductor at Minute Maid Park for making Astros games so exciting. He is the most underrated hype man ever. God bless him

Listen - the western supply company building being right in the middle of the stadium seating is cool as hell!

Oh, I didn't know San Francisco Bay was "inside" the stadium. Lol.

That hill is not there anymore on the Houston astros

The supply co in San Diego is famous because of Bartolo Colon hitting his first career home run there with the Mets.

Baseball is "weird"to begin with, and just so dang-excellent-weird, at it's best . . . Nonconformity of field, players, fans, plays, strategies, etc., has ways been it's allure and heart and soul. Thank you for the post!
