This was honestly a tough call between about 10 different ballparks. I have some sentimental favorites for the fifth position, but I had to go with the all around well performer. Dodger Stadium was opened in 1962, and was about 30 years ahead of it's time.
Not only did the ballpark stick to the game's roots with a retro feel it also had a futuristic flair with a symmetrical outfield wall. While there was a brief explosion in symmetrical playing fields during the 70s and 80s, typically within lifeless dual purpose stadiums which have all been eliminated from the game -- Dodger Stadium managed to go symmetrical while also being a charming ballpark.
When you play in Dodger Stadium in an MLB game, you'll notice it is now the only symmetrical field in the National League. It features the classic outfield view point with the wavy outfield roofing atop the outfield bleachers -- which is the stadiums calling card for players in game.
