    I spent a lot of time at Shea Stadium over the years, from child days in the 1970's until it was torn down. While it was sad to see it go, it's time had come. Citi Field is a wonderful ballpark. I also saw games at all 3 iterations of Yankee Stadium, the original, the renovated, and the new one.

    Old Comiskey was time worn but it had character, and one could imagine the greats who played on that field during those years, sad that it's only a memory now.

    For me, you saved the best for last. My dad took me to see the Pirates for the first time in 1966. It was my first time seeing a ballgame in color, since we only had a black and white TV at the time. Dad took me to two more games there, one in 1967 and one in 1968. In June of 1970, my uncle showed up at the house and asked me and my sister if we would like to go with him to see the final two games to be played at Forbes, or if we'd prefer to go to church with Mom. Needless to say, he didn't have to ask twice, and we had a great time seeing the doubleheader sweep of the Cubs, as Bill Mazeroski made the final put out ever on that field.

The Astrodome (the first domed stadium) was home to the Houston Astros until they moved into Minute Maid Park. Milwaukee County Stadium, home of the Braves from 1953 until 1966 then the Brewers until ?. They now play at Miller Park. Atlanta Fulton County Stadium was home to the Braves until they moved into Turner Field and then their current home Truist Park. Memorial Stadium in Baltimore was the Orioles' home until the first of the throwback ballparks. They now play at Oriole Park at Camden Yards. Toronto Blues Jays began playing in Exhibition Stadium until the move to Skydome (Rogers Centre). KC Municipal Stadium was home to the Athletics from 1955 until 1968 when they moved to Oakland. The replacement Royals now play at Kauffman Stadium. Not sure about San Diego. The Cleveland Indians (Guardians) played in Cleveland Municipal Stadium until moving into Progressive Field (Jacobs Field). Tore down?

    That is amazing history to know. I didn’t know they began singing the Star Spangled Banner over the 7th inning stretch.
    That obviously grew into one of the most special and highly revered traditions in all baseball, if not all of sports. It would’ve been amazing had you added one more to your list and expanded on how they sang the National Anthem over the 7th inning stretch then to start and then expand from there on when and how it changed again to what it is today, the singing of “Take Me Out To The Ball Game” in stead of the National Anthem and why between the top and bottom of the 7th inning. Or maybe, I’m all wrong and it is perfect as is and you could use it as a segway into its own video about the great traditions of baseball or even if all sports, full stop.
    Either way bro, you’ve done an excellent job here with this video. Thanks heaps. Sorry to blab on but I enjoyed this video heaps. Thanks again .

    Shea Stadium was never known as anything other than Shea Stadium, except on paper plans for the initial construction. It was Wm. Shea who ran the political campaign to build the stadium. Nothing to do with being an unpopular name.

    One of the greatest games
    played at Tiger Stadium was the
    1971 All-Star game.
    1-Reggie Jackson hit a HR
    off the light tower above
    right field. Estimated 567 ft
    away from home plate.
    And who was playing
    right field? Willie Mays.
    2-Frank Robinson bounced
    left field roof.
    3-Hank Arron over the center
    field roof.
    Look it up.
    Oh and the Pittsburgh Pirates
    pitcher Dock Ellie claims he
    pitched in that game on a
    hit of LSD.
    Imagine seeing the tracers off his
    fastball.

    We have the DVD of Billy Joel's concert at Shea Stadium before it was torn down, 'Last Play at Shea'. Another stadium they didn't mention was Milwaukee County Stadium. The new ones like Miler Park are nice but they just don't have the same feel & history of the old ballparks. I've only been to County stadium one time & Miller Park nearly once a year since it was built & I still liked County Stadium better.

    for a mets fan like me, shea stadium before its last days was already spelling out "unreliable and unadvanced" because the design of the stadium looked like a pie with its first slice missing. plus the seating arrangement caused a lot of problems for people who wanted to get better views of the field and players, plus the corridors were narrow and filled with trash and junk. and also the seating safety fences were lousing their paint and it was getting chipped away. plus the field itself was not big enough and it looked like a small backyard field that the sandlot kids would use. Now that Citi field exist, its actually a better improvement and benefit because the field is a little bigger, and the seating arrangement is better, plus the corridors are now wider and cleaner. plus citi field is the only ballpark in new york to have a bridge.

    The Pittsburgh Pirates Left Forbes Field for Three Rivers Stadium in the middle of July 1970. June 28th, 1970, was the Pirates last game at Forbes Field. The Pirates played a Doubleheader against the Chicago Cubs. The Pirates won the 2nd Game 4-1. The Pirates 1st Game at Three Rivers Stadium was July 16th 1970. The Pirates did not play in the World Series in 1970. Three Rivers Stadium would Host the World Series in 1971.

      Have to agree with those sentiments. Here in Australia a number of our old sporting facilities are protected by a National Trust. The Melbourne Cricket Ground has seen many changes since 1853 but International / domestic sports are still played there with attendances over 100,000. The Sydney Cricket Ground, Adelaide Oval, Randwick Racecourse and Flemington Racecourse are slightly later additions.
