MLB STADIUM TOUR VIA GOOGLE EARTH AND MLB 07

by Richie Rich, Home Run Derby

You know those guys who have too much money and free time on their hands that take a summer off and go and visit all thirty MLB ballparks in a summer?

Yeah, I’d like to be one of those guys too. My dad and I have wanted to make that trip ever since I bought him the book “Dodger Dogs to Fenway Franks” for Father’s Day one year.

But I don’t have the time or scratch. And my wife would have probably have changed the locks by the time I got home …

Have you got 15 minutes?

Well if you do, you can take a quick virtual tour of every MLB stadium in 15 minutes. Thanks to some guy (who also had some extra time on his hands) who did some cool work with Google Earth and the MLB 07 videogame.

We’ll begin with the 14 ballparks of the American League …

And now let’s hit the 16 ballparks of the National League …

Okay, I think we’re dealing with a professional here. Astounding.

But I still want to do this in person. Someday Dad, someday.
