Sportsman's Park
St. Louis Cardinals
Sportsman's Park hosted Cardinals baseball for 65 seasons (including many years shared with the Browns) and was the site of some of the greatest moments in St. Louis baseball history. Stan Musial played his entire career here. It was renamed Busch Stadium in 1953 and demolished in 1966 when the team moved to the second Busch Stadium.
