Your Personal Baseball Coordinates
You'll need mlb.com for addys and maps.yahoo.com for miles - - but, this is kinda fun................
What's your "nearest ballpark coordinates"? Use just MLB parks, thanks. Here's mine: 50 miles South of Yankee Stadium 88 miles North of Veterans Stadium 490 miles East of Jacobs Field ........and, there is no MLB park to my east..........
