We are counting down MLB's best ballparks throughout the 2025 season.
Here is last week's edition #939158
The next ballpark on the list #24.
Nationals Park- Washington Nationals
Opened: 2008
Capacity: 41,339
Washington Post once described it as "an architecture of distraction". Essentially a maze designed to take your money as opposed to creating a great fan experience. Beyond that glowing endorsement, the place just looks bland. The skyline isn't anything to write home about, the old school style scoreboard with Nationals draped across the top was a nice idea but I am unmoved by the execution. Like many parks we will cover, it looks like a perfectly reasonable place to spend an afternoon/evening watching a ballgame but just doesn't have that wow factor. I will give them credit for naming it Nationals Park instead of selling out for a dumb corporate name, like Rate field.
On to number 23 next week.
Sats for all,
