General Updates

It is almost the middle of the month and the season is winding down. We have added several features to ballparksofbaseball.com. Every month we receive several emails asking about teams and their home dugouts, whether they are on the first or third base side. On each ballpark page, you can now find out whether your favorite team's dugout is on the first or third base side. Traditionally one thinks that the home dugout is on the first base side. However, currently there are 18 teams with their dugout on the first base side and 12 teams with their dugout on the third base side.

We have also added a section on each ballpark section that contains information about each ballpark's ground rules. This also includes rules for opening/closing retractable roofs.

New pictures can also be found on the Miller Park page.

New Month...New Updates

Wow it's already September. The season has flew by, but it is one of the most exciting times of the season with teams battling to get into the playoffs. It is also the last month for fans to visit Yankee Stadium and Shea Stadium before they close forever. It appears that for the first time in over a decade that there will not be October baseball at Yankee Stadium.
Here are the latest updates to the site:

Citi Field-The Citi Field sign has been installed on the facade of the ballpark and work continues on the inside.
Twins Ballpark - New construction pictures show the latest structural work around the ballpark site.
Yankee Stadium - Seat installation continues and work has begun preparing the field for the installation of grass. A new link on this page will allow for fans to check out views from any section throughout the new Yankee Stadium.
