The most amazing minor league park I've ever been to is Raley Field, home of the Sacramento Rivercats. Check out these pics, along with a short article.

most of them, but what i was refering to was just how beautiful watching baseball is from the berms, and plus that park is actually really nice, nce scenery, attendence numbers seem to be good.

what about this: http://www.digitalballparks.com/Inte...al/Toledo.html look out the OF walls here! and the seats inbetween the two buildings in right field! its so different, i dono about you, but im sick of cookie cutters.

I also like the Astros AAA team's park. I think its called the Dell Diamond. (Round Rock Express)

I'm only saying Victory Field, Home of the Indianapolis Indians is my favorite because it is in my hometown and it has a sort of traditional feel.

lol, not because there my 2nd fav team, but all astro's parks are amazing! I live near one, the Tri-City Valley cats (A short season), the park, well theres nothing different about it, other than the building behind the home plate seats, its gray! a "refreshing change" (www.digitalballparks.com) the sky is so beautiful there on an aug. night.

Picture of McCoy Stadium's unique ground level dugouts, which makes it the only "second story" stadium in the world.

People being "McCoy fishermen, where they use milkcartons and string to lower down baseballs to be autographed.(I've tried this before, very fun)

They do, I used a string and a milk carton myself with a ball and sharpie inside, I got Byung-yun Kims(sp) once. It's a great ballpark and VERY affordable(Front row, right behind home plate is 8$), I suggest that if anyone is in the Pawtucket area, they stop by and see a game, you might just get a rehabbing pro's sig.

I would have to agree in saying that Victory Field is one of the best minor league stadiums. I like the double deck and how it is close to the field since the place is so small. To move the upper deck out closer to the field would make it perhaps the most perfect stadium I have ever seen.

what about that?

Yeah I like that one too, nice upper deck.

Some people say that the upper deck will make it feel more like a major league stadium but I think if it is used with taste it looks perfect.

I kind of get tired of how the press box and suites all look the same at the top of the grandstand.

Dayton, Oh has a 5th 3rd too.

What about Auto Zone Park?

I like the uppper deck on the 5th 3rd one (the other one) to bad it is only 1 pic of it.

ooo I really like the seating at the auto zone one! black seats!?! wow i've never seen that before, and a smoke red and black color building? the building looks different too. And I like the upper deck it has, I would say auto zone is my fav for the seating bowl.

EDIT: well actually the red is part of the seats, but it looks cool anyways.

Campbell's Field, across the river from Philadelphia in Camden.

The funy thing is that it actually has a better skyline view of Philadelphia than the Phillies ballpark has. :noidea
