I like Munhak Baseball Stadium in Korea. It has a capacity around 30k or so.

This thread is incredibly old, if we want to talk future venues, let's create a new one.

I think baseball is the only US sport where the stadiums used to be infinitely cooler. Though there are exceptions, Chattanooga has an awesome park.

How long does a baseball game usaully last? So theres a football game coming on a channel at 7:15 PM on Saturday. And theres a baseball game coming on before it that starts at 5:05 PM. What are the chances the baseball game will interfere with the televised game at 7:15. Thanks.

Baseball games usually last about 3 hours. Could be longer cause of the postseason.

Postseason games usually run closer to 3:30 hours, sometimes 4.

They are gonna renovate Estadio Quisqueya in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic and convert it into a 30,000 seat stadium. This is being done in order to host a round in the next WBC.

The ballparks from Japan are terrible. The cookie cutter stadiums of the 70's and 80's had more character.

Does anyone think the Marlins new stadium will help the attendance?

New Yankee Stadium

The $1.5 billion NYS's ramps already has chipped concrete. Despite that it will host Game 1 of the World Series Wednesday.
