Having an amateur interest in architecture, I have visited about 15 major league stadiums in the past twelve years and three of the Royals minor leagues before they moved to their current stadiums. With the help of Google maps, I put together a digital tour of where the Boys in Blue play ball. Tracking down the Dominican stadium was a small challenge, but now I understand why they have a team there - great vacation spot.
