Bad Ballpark Names

Owners of baseball clubs build stadiums so the fans can see their stars. But the owners cashed in when they began selling their name to big name companies. Some of them are good but most of them are bad. Let’s start off with the good(This list does not include Wrigley Field, Busch Stadium, or anything with the teams name):

Good Names

  • Great American Ballpark
  • Citi Field

That’s about it. I am going to list the stadiums with the worst names (I just want to say, I am still waiting for the Google Grasses or the Twitter Dome). Keep in mind that it is my own opinion so please don’t get mad. The worst ballpark names in MLB:

Bad Names

  • U.S. Cellular Field
  • Citizens Bank Park (Get rid of the bank and it’s fine)
  • Comerica Park
  • Globe Life Park

MLB Ballparks with Bullpens on Field

The other night, Giants right fielder Hunter Pence tripped over the bullpen mound on the field at AT&T Park and still made the catch. I did a little research (not really, I just know and I can guarantee you it’s correct) and found that three other ballparks also have bullpens on the field. Here are a list of them:

  • AT&T Park
  • Wrigley Field
  • O.co Coliseum
  • Tropicana Field
