How old is each MLB stadium?

Which MLB stadiums are the oldest? Which are the newest?

Take a look at each MLB team's current stadium, ranked from oldest to newest, based on the date of the team's first game in that ballpark.

There are 14 current MLB stadiums that were constructed prior to 2000, with some historic venues (Boston Red Sox's Fenway Park, Chicago Cubs' Wrigley Field) among them — ballparks that probably won't be replaced anytime soon due to the nostalgia surrounding the parks.

That leaves 16 current MLB ballparks that started being used in the 2000 season or even more recently. The Texas Rangers' Globe Life Field is the most recently constructed stadium.
