The Ballpark Project

The ‘Ballpark Project’ starts today!

The Project answers the simple question, ‘Who has the best Ballpark in Baseball?’ First, we traveled to and experienced the ballparks. After that, we ranked and filed them into a bracket. This will be a chance for you to select your favorite baseball stadium.

What can you do? Vote! And Vote often!  We will be posting two match-ups at a time on M-W-F. Each voting will last one week from the time of the post, and the winner will move on. Vote at SportsTrekker.com, Vote on Twitter (@sportstrekker) or Vote on Facebook. Every vote counts.

Let’s do this!
