"Play Ball!"

This week marks the beginning of the 2010 Major League Baseball season in the USA.[1] Let's get out and map the major league parks and their surroundings. Get the ball park to be sure, but let's also make sure that the points of interest to a visiting ball fan are mapped as well. That means restaurants and bars, fast food and public parking lots, souvenir shops and pharmacies (for sunscreen and bug spray). Street addresses very much appreciated.

As always, Wikipedia has a nice list of Major League cities and ballparks if you don't know where to start. If you are remote consider teaming up with a local, via talk-us.
