I can't find the answer so thought I'd ask it here. Which ball park has given up the most home runs? Intuitively I'd say its yankee stadium or fenway park due to the age, but no real proof. Anyone?

Fenway Park opened in 1912, and Wrigley Field opened in 1914. I think it would be safe to say that one of these parks has given up the most home runs. Yankee Stadium, opened in 1923, is the only other possibility.
Welcome to baseball fever. I hope you enjoy your stay.

Wrigley Field has the record for most homers hit at the park with 11,467 homers hit there. Followed by Yankee Stadium with 11,195 homers, then Tiger Stadium at 11,114 homers then Fenway at 10,633.
If the Tigers don't build Comerica then Tiger Stadium would blow away Wrigley and Yankee Stadium.

Source for this please. Do you have a list of every current stadium? If so it could earn you a spectacular home made omlette made with the finest ostrich eggs, cooked up in my hall of fame kitchen.

Well if you're using Ostrich eggs (plural, more than one), that's gonna be some
BIGGIE SIZE omlette, ay?! Sounds like breakfast is served.
Just as an aside.....there is a website (gotta go dig it out), that lists ALL ballparks,
past and present. Not sure if it would include HR info like that. I will check.
