This was a challenge to seed: ballparks formerly in three levels of play, including Short Season A, were hard to compare. We can’t wait to see what our readers–whom we consider to be the smartest folks in baseball–say about the best of the ballparks. The remaining third–fans, media, government–will certainly have a different view on things as well. And we know from our research that a third of our readers sell to the baseball industry, so that expertise will be valuable as well. We know from marketing stats that a third of our readers work in the baseball industry, so we’re tapping into that collective expertise. It’s still High-A, but the geographic league names were replaced by the traditional league names: South Atlantic League (Sally League), Midwest League and Northwest League. Yes, the old classifications and leagues are back-mostly. Here are the seeds for the MiLB High-A ballpark vote. The ballparks receiving the most votes in the Sweet Sixteen round: Parkview Field ( Fort Wayne TinCaps), Neuroscience Group Field at Fox Cities Stadium, Gesa Stadium, ABC Supply Stadium, Modern Woodmen Park and Truist Stadium, the latter two in losing yet noble efforts. This year we will see a new champion, as Maimonides Park (Brooklyn Cyclones) was knocked from the competition, but there are still former champs in the running, including Parkview Field, Gesa Stadium and Four Winds Field. There was a definite suspense level here as well: Jackson Field was triumphant by only four votes over Funko Field, for example.Īfter all, this is a fan vote, and this year we are seeing some very fine ballparks in this Elite Eight round. One of the fun parts of this competition across all levels is seeing what teams and ballpark make their first appearances in later rounds. We saw a few more upsets and plenty of fan interest in the Sweet Sixteen round as we move to the Elite Eight round of the 2022 MiLB High-A Best of the Ballparks vote.
