Jaime Moyer to pitch in 50 stadiums

Nymr83 May 21 2012 10:22 AM

Moyer will become the first player to pitch in FIFTY different major league parks tonight when he starts at Miami's new stadium (according to Jayson Stark) A testament to his long 25 year career, the advent of interleague play, and the number of owners who have squeezed public dollars out of their states and cities recently. This got me thinking, how many teams are even still playing where they played when Moyer's career began? I'm coming up with the Red Sox, Twins, Athletics, Cubs, and Dodgers. Are any of these wrong? Am I missing any?

Not the Twins. Royals, though.

Looks like you've got 'em covered: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_M ... l_stadiums Hard to believe that now 3 of the 5 oldest active ballparks are in California. Also, the only two stadiums still using artificial turf are ranked 7th & 8th oldest.

And that will tend to happen, sadly.

The first time they were known as the Los Angeles Angels, they played within the city limits, for one season at Wrigley Field and four at Dodger Stadium. The change to "California Angels" coincided with their first season at Anaheim Stadium.
