I detest the damn Yankees with all of my being—but I absolutely cherish #baseball history, and I’m especially captivated by the majesty of #ballparks.

I can’t deny the Yankees are the most storied team in baseball—and Yankee Stadium is baseball’s most storied ballpark, so I’ll be watching “VIP: Yankee Stadium” in fascination and awe—even though it was filmed during last year’s World Series matchup between the two teams I hate the most.

Also: Corporate naming rights have royally screwed the game. VIP: Citi Field? VIP: Oracle Park?

They don’t have quite the same solemnity, do they?

Get rid of corporate naming deals and call the parks by their team names. I’d much prefer to see VIP: Giants Ballpark.
