I think with Marlins Park, they got rid of all its character. The sculpture, the fish tank, they even got rid of the lime green walls, and made them Yankee navy. It looks depressing now.

Went to fedex field for WVU VT several years ago, those boxes covering up seats are literally chain link fences with a tarp over them, it’s absolutely absurd

Small example that bums me out is Indiana Farmers Coliseum. The old barn used to have so much history displayed around the seating bowl. Now it’s all ads and historical references are confined to the lobby. How the hell did they not bring the Wayne Gretzky banner back? Hasek played in Indy as well, he surely deserves a reference

It’s amazing that we live in a time where humans can make things like this in the world

Since I live in the Bay Area, Oracle park in the past 23 years along with China Basin and Mission Bay area made a lot of changes. The center field batter's eye area used to be just a grassy area until the 2010s. The issue I don't like is you have to have a season club membership to view the bullpen area. The Giants ownership also put a live arcade area to enhance the fan experience only available to the members. They also put more restrictions on people trying to sit at empty seats in the left field bleachers because a view reserved ticket cost cheaper than the left field bleachers.

Soldier Field should be in this list, or at least have it under honorable mentions. That stadium lost its landmark status when a spaceship landed on it. Because that describes what the stadium looks like.

It looks like a giant slug. I hate it when people refer to that as a "renovation". It wasn't. They tore down everything but the columns and built a completely different stadium in the empty space. A "renovation" would have rebuilt the stands exactly the way they were, like Wrigley Field.

Oracle Park Triples alley is still there. The Garden was their 4 years before the bullpens were installed in CF. The removal of seats was only 300 CF bleacher seats. Every cheap seat in baseball is being reduced or removed with higher priced options added.

Tal's Hill was awesome. Not having a flagpole in play makes sense. But the hill was sick. As for San Francisco, the Garden is silly, but they do grow some stuff that's used for stadium concessions, and the bar out there is popular. I hate not having bullpens in play, though. I like being able to see who's warming up.

The perfect bullpen is in Fenway Park, behind the wall where it belongs.

I think the moving of the LF wall at Camden Yards is a good thing. Maybe they should have moved it back less, but the new dimensions are definitely better than the other old ones imo. What they did to Oracle Park is horrible imo. Removing Tal's Hill is bad, but no worse than moving the walls in at Comerica Park.

What's the reason for blasting on solar panels? Lots of stadiums should have solar panels on their roof.

SOFI has the drinking rails all around several levels. PERCO Park had moved their fences in years ago. I think the dimensions were actually messing with Padres players heads.

The majority of these stadiums are just a waste of public monies for rich families.

I've noticed the Dolans tend to change the layout and capacity of progressive field based on how the team is doing(the biggest predictor of attendance). I'm not surprised they're putting a bar in the upper deck of the stadium next year seeing as the team is on its way up and has the majority of its core locked down long term.

Camden Yards did the retro style parks right and even though it's the era that we're going to see more contemporary parks, seating capacities at 30,000-35,000 is going to be the norm. Oracle Park in San Francisco really enhanced the standing room experience in the 2000s, with even the non baseball parks, open concourses to see the action everywhere in the park is the new norm.

Tal’s Hill was “inspired” by the Cincinnati Reds Crosley Field “terrace” which was an upslope in left field. The Crosley Field terrace was much wider, but not very steep. Crosley was built in the early 1900’s when baseball parks were constrained by the existing streets and land. Sports weren’t a multi-billion dollar business back then, so they didn’t tear up the neighborhood just to build a ballpark. Crosley Field was replaced by Riverfront Stadium in 1970. Also, numerous old MLB parks had the flagpoles on the playing field. Tiger Stadium, Yankee Stadium, Forbes Field in Pittsburgh, and others. Many of the old MLB parks had gigantic center fields. Tiger Stadium was 440 ft. The original Yankee Stadium field (pre-1975 renovation) was about 430. Forbes Field was over 430 as I recall. Again, all these parks weee built within the confines of existing streets. In Chicago, where it’s flat and the streets were in perfectly square blocks, Wrigley Field and Comiskey Park had symmetrical fields. Fenway Park, Yankee Stadium, Forbes Field, Crosley Field, etc, had oddball dimensions because the streets weren’t perpendicular to each other. While I liked the idea of Tal’s Hill as an homage to old time baseball, it was way too steep and contrived for modern baseball, so I agree with your take. I think Minute Maid Park is better without it.

Tal's Hill was a safety hazard plain and simple, its a literal hill that you have to adjust to while fielding a ball and a pole in the middle. better to be safe than sorry and I really don't get the whole soft thing with you, I used to play in a field with a hill down left field and the poles were inside of the field and almost every week someone would run into the poles and would always have to leave the game and players would often trip on the hill and twist their ankles. hills on what should be a flat playing surface is not a feature my guy.

Renovations that made stadiums worse: every renovation for the 2014 World Cup in Brazil. Massively overpiced, kicked the average fan out for a bunch of hipsters.

Regarding Oriole Park, do you not understand how slopes work? If you cut back into the LF stands, the remaining rows will be higher up (and therefore the outfield wall higher) because the rows that had sloped down towards the field just got cut out.

As a diehard Houston Astros fan, I always thought Tal's Hill was dumb and unnecessary. I'm glad the Astros got rid of it.

IMHO, Camden Yards should have instead removed seating in LF altogether and built a social spot with "on-the-field" views protected by a wired fencing. Literally have a Green Monster raised to the middle deck premium seats

i didn't think any football Stadum renovation be beany worst than Chicago's Solders Feild. No wonder the bears want to get the heck out of town

Way to go Orioles. Imagine having season tickets and having your seats removed !

I was good with OPACY moving the fence back but agreed it stinks they raised the fence. One of the best parts of the early days of Camden Yards was watching Mike Devereaux and Brady Anderson rob would-be HRs. Devo had one of the best vertical leaps in MLB history but even he would have trouble robbing a HR from the LF way at Camden Yards these days.

Washington how are steel beams with nothing standing room only? Is there a net looking at it only see beams and air. Could be a net just can''t see it

The left field wall moving back eliminated my season ticket spot and perhaps the rowdiest fan section. I get it like it needed to be moved but by 30 feet? I’m pretty much used to the aesthetic of it now but I sure do miss my seats.

Oriole park I understand why they also raised it, of course because it was easier to do that than to rework seating too, but they should have realized that raising it would have that effect and only have moved it about 2/3 or half the distance back to truly count for both

In Baltimore, it's so much better for the Orioles. I both agree and disagree with Ginger. It's crazy difficult now to homer left field. The problem was that pitchers in the past would shy away from coming to Baltimore. Now that the Orioles are winning left field is the way of the land 🫡

Bro doesn’t know the benefits of solar panels

On the bright side, Oriole Park can now host a proper football field.
