Who doesn’t enjoy watching a baseball game on a warm sunny summer afternoon? Follow me on my journey to visit all 30 MLB stadiums!
The ultimate bucket list item for any fan of baseball is to visit all 30 MLB stadiums. From Boston to Miami, Houston to Los Angeles, Seattle to Chicago and everywhere in-between, baseball is a cornerstone of American culture.
The earliest recorded baseball game was played in 1838, and in 1912 baseball appeared in the Olympics as a demonstrative sport (games were played as a show of sportsmanship but no medals were awarded). It wasn’t until 1992 that baseball become a medal event at the Olympics and today there are professional baseball leagues around the world.
To visit all 30 stadiums is no easy task. It is true that there are a few cities that host more than one team; New York City, Chicago, Los Angeles (Anaheim is part of the LA metropolitan area) and the Bay area (San Francisco and Oakland). When one seeks to visit every stadium, it’s important to take into account how far apart certain baseball cities are, when teams are home and to plan accordingly. For example, if you’re planning a trip to catch a Cleveland Guardians game, make sure to find a home-stand that coincides with when the Detroit Tigers are home because the two cities are only 2.5 hours apart. Of course, planning a cross country trip is an easy way to reach the 26 metropolitan cities that comprise the MLB, but not everybody can take the time to pull off such a trip.
Fortunately for you, I’ve visited 29 MLB stadiums (with Seattle the lone remaining baseball city). It’s my hope that this page provides you with the necessary facts and information you may need when planning a trip to visit a game, whether that be close to home or far away. Even more, I will talk in-depth about the biggest baseball adventure I took back in 2012, a road trip that covered 3,400 miles through 12 states on my way to visit 11 stadiums.
This was an adventure I will never forget and certainly wasn’t the craziest thing I’ve done to catch a game (more on that throughout these pages). Read on to explore the 30 stadiums that make up the MLB and the adventures I’ve had through the years. I hope one day you can create your own personal adventure through baseball!
