Historic Baseball Parks
Baseball is truly one of America’s most beloved pastimes. Millions of fans nationwide spend copious amounts of money every season to watch their team make great strides to get to the World Series. These games take place in unique, grand arenas, each steeped in history, and that alone makes experiencing tours of these stadiums a must.
As you plan your vacations to Boston, Chicago, and New York City, here are some reasons for you to experience some of their popular baseball stadiums.

Fenway Park was inducted into the U.S. National Register of Historic Places in 2012. When you visit the stadium, be sure to visit Section 42, Row 37, Seat 21 (which is the location of the only red within the bleachers), as this is the spot where Boston Red Sox player Ted Williams hit the longest home run in the stadium’s history (at 502 feet in 1946).
