That House That Phat Albert Built

Busch Stadiums II & III in 2005




Albert Pujols most likely sealed a new deal after his 2nd Cardinals championship. It would seem unlikely that any amont of money would make him want to soil his St. Louis Legacy. Surely, the Cards will make him the highest paid first basemen (until Prince bolts Milwaukee). The Cards second title in New Busch got me to thinking... which current stadium has housed the most World Series titles? The Cards (2006) and Yankees (2009) each christened their new stadiums with a first season title. The Braves waved goodbye to Fulton County Stadium with a title in 1995 (is it just me or do the Rangers look like Braves impersonators?) Anyways, here is a list of the ten (!?!) stadiums that have been the home to the most titles (you'll notice Wrigley is not on the list):
Fenway Park- 6
Oakland-Alameda County- 4
Dodger Stadium- 4
Rogers Centre- 2
Busch Stadium III- 2
Citizens Bank Ballpark- 1
Yankee Stadium- 1
Pac Bell/AT & T-1
Comiskey Park II- 1
Kauffman Stadium- 1
Angel Stadium- 1
