Home of the Astros since 2000
Even post-Tal’s Hill, Minute Maid Park is one of the quirkier stadiums in the league. Because of that, reasonable minds can disagree significantly on where it should be ranked on this type of list.
The good: The train tracks are awesome in left field, and there’s something satisfying about watching a home run hit off the Crawford boxes.
The bad: 315 feet to left field leads to a few too many cheap home runs. The roof isn’t open nearly as frequently as it should be. Also, the left-center field area is a disaster. To the right of the short porch, you can hit a ball high enough off the wall for it to be a home run but it still lands on the field after hitting off the Crawford boxes, rather than in the stands. The visitors’ bullpen is at this part of the stadium, and it’s almost like a dungeon where it’s impossible to see who, if anyone, is warming up.
For a stadium that opened in 2000, the infrastructure feels very dated, which makes it difficult to get around. Many baseball writers have found out over the last seven years how poorly equipped Minute Maid Park is to handle the influx of media that comes with a World Series.
Unlike many other stadiums with retractable roofs, Minute Maid Park has a unique feeling to it, even with the roof closed. But at times it borders on being gimmicky.
