Franklin Covey Field, Salt Lake City. Best view: Sunsets light up the outfield's Rocky Mountains.

Everett Memorial Stadium, Everett, Wash. Stilt walkers, jugglers, face painters, and, oh yeah, a game

Cashman Field, Las Vegas. See the Stars anytime, or check out the 2000 AAA World Series, Sept. 18 to 22.

John Thurman Field, Modesto, Calif. Mark McGwire honed his home run skills here as an A's farmhand.

Lawrence-Dumont Stadium, Wichita. Watch players hit a true "Texas league" double when visiting the Wranglers.

Dell Diamond, Round Rock, Texas. Soak in seats in the hot tub and pool in the Express' new Austin park.

Grayson Stadium, Savannah. Picnic under the pines along the outfield lines, and watch the Sand Gnats play.

Durham Bulls Athletic Park, Durham, N.C. Immortalized in Bull Durham. Check out the snorting bull sign. Sadly, no Costner or Sarandon.

Yale Field, New Haven. Only two sluggers have cleared the Green Monster in 53 years. And George Bush played here!

Dunn Tire Park, Buffalo. Rich minor league history with a classic Ebbets Field-style park and a cityscape view

Victory Field, Indianapolis. Baseball's the thing as you view the No. 1 Class-AAA team of the '90s.

AutoZone Park, Memphis. New Redbirds stadium opens this year with a minor league baseball museum as the premium attraction.

Midway Stadium, St. Paul. Nutty theme nights and a party vibe make the Saints a tough ticket.
