Major League Ballparks since 1900

Sorted chronologically by franchise

© 2008 Grand Slam Enterprises

This chart is the culmination of a lot of effort and research.  It is certainly a work in progress, as I will be filling in the "blank" fields as I run across the missing data.  For right now, though, it should give you some valuable info regarding the ballparks that the teams in the Majors have used starting in 1900.

There is a lot of data in this table, so it might take your browser a little while to load it all, so be patient.  I'm also told that it looks better in Internet Explorer than in Netscape.  Note also the footnotes below the chart.

NOTES:  

• Franchises are in alphabetical order by current team nickname (note that team nicknames might have changed over the years)
• Some "1st year" dates are prior to 1900 because the park was already in use when the new century arrived
