MLB Ballpark Trivia

[buckeyejim]

Yes, I know this is not college football, but this is interesting trivia.

What two MLB Ballparks do NOT have lights on the fair side of the foul poles in the outfield, that light up the backs of the players? If you ever watch night games from these ballparks, the backs of the outfielders are very dark due to no direct lighting coming in from the outfield.

Wrigley ??

Turner Field and Wrigley Field are the ones!

I had home field advantage with The Ted.

If Turner Field is called "The Ted" after Ted Turner, can Wrigley Field be called "The Philip" after Philip K. Wrigley?

Since we're speaking of Wrigley Field and lights, Wrigley was supposed to have lights installed in the early 40's, but were put off when electronic equipment was needed for WWII. Adding lights were put off until.....1988.
