How Many Major League Baseball Ballparks Have You Been To?

Just saw the "how many states have you visited thread" so I thought this would be a fun one. You need to have attended a regular season or post season MLB game at the stadium. If they started playing and then it got rained out then it's ok I guess.

CITI Field
Veterans Stadium - Went July 22, 2003. Originally had tickets for a Red Sox-Phillies game in June that got rained out and this was the only time I could go. Sat through a long Met-Phillies game with Steve Trachsel pitching against Kevin Millwood. The Mets won 7-5 and the game ended with Pat Burrell striking out representing the go-ahead run.
Citizen's Bank Ballpark - Went Twice in 2004, saw the Marlins and Astros with Roger Clemens. Went Sept. 10, 2008 for a loss to the Marlins right before the Met collapse began. Went to two World Series games in 2009.
Camden Yards - Went July 2005. A friend was doing a freelance story on Brian Roberts, so I went to the Saturday afternoon game against the White Sox. Nothing noteworthy about a 9-6 White Sox win until the next week when Rafael Palmeiro was busted for steroids. And since he homered in the game I was at, I saw his last home run.
Fenway Park - One of the greatest games I've ever seen, June 4, 1999. This was when Pedro Martinez was in his prime and that night he struck out 16 Atlanta Braves in a 5-1 victory
Rogers Centre - Went in 1993 on a summer camp trip and saw them play the Twins. Saw Juan Guzman pitch eight innings and Paul Molitor hit a home run. Went again two weeks ago, purposely bought left field seats because of Bautista and of course the Orioles shut them out with Jeremy Guthrie on the mound. Only 13,000 at the game but wound up talking to the brother-in-law of one of the Blue Jay relievers that was a minor league callup.
Miller Park - Since I couldn't get Vic tickets, saw a 12-4 Met win in Milwaukee. It was an historical game because it was Brian Lawrence's Met debut. Saw a four-hit game from Wright and two home runs by Corey Hart.
Wrigley Field - Saw Eddie throw out the first pitch to Kerry Wood and then saw the Mets score four runs in the top of the ninth off Ryan Dempster. While the Mets took a five-game lead over the Phillies that day, I was headed for Speedypalooza.
Dodger Stadium - Went there three times, the first time in 2006. Sat in the top of the stadium for about five bucks and saw the Dodgers win 9-8. Bonds homered to the LA boos but the game was won on a Nomar Garciappara eighth-inning home run.
Went to two of the three Yankee Games out there last year, a 9-4 loss that featured AJ Burnett sucking and Joe Torre using Jonathan Broxton in a non-save situation for 45 pitches. the next night, the Yankees stormed back for an 8-6 win.
AT and T - Saw three games there in 2006. Saw a 14-7 Dodger win on Kirk Rueter night. Saw Greg Maddux win against this Giant lineup: Randy Winn, Omar Vizquel, Ray Durham, Barry Bonds, Moises Alou, Shea Hillenbrand, Pedro Feliz and Eliezar Alfonzo.
Went to a weekday afternoon game against Arizona that the Giants were 7-6 winners in. Arizona outfielder Chris Young hit his first career home run in this game but the game was decided on Alfonzo's triple in the seventh off Brandon Lyon.
The third game was against the Reds and it saw Matt Morris pitch a complete game against the Reds. It was one of three times I saw Morris pitch, having also seen him in pitch in New York and Los Angeles. I also remember his warmup music was a Pearl Jam song, possibly "Worldwide Suicide".
Safeco - Saw this game hours after landing in Seattle Sept. 2009. Felix Hernandez and AJ Burnett were lights out and the Yankees took a 2-1 lead into the bottom of the ninth. After watching Rivera warm up in the bullpen, I saw him give up a game-winning two-run home run to Ichiro.
That makes 14.
