Arlo, that is the most brutal question I have ever seen. I was sure I knew the answer but I admit to checking to make sure. I will leave this for everyone else. As proof I offer you this, the next in the list. Cleveland Stadium.

Thanks, chuckr37 - I'll take that as a compliment (or should I?). I figured that since some really tough questions have been answered correctly recently, a tough nut to crack wouldn't hurt. Anyway, if you knew the answer but only double-checked, I'd say that should count, if your guess was correct.

But maybe through some odd coincidence there are two lists that begin this way? Shibe Park is #11 on my list... or did you write #21 (Cleveland) by accident?

Wouldn't it be something if two significant lists started this way?

[nkeitt]

is it the stadiums where the first 10 MLB games were played, in chronological order?

[Arlo]

No... but you're not off by much!

[nkeitt]

OK, how about home stadia of the first 10 league champs (winners of 1st 10 Worlds Series). Warmer or colder? NK

[chuckr37]

Well, I had this as the stadiums for the first 10 All-Star games. I doubled checked my source and I have Cleveland Stadium as the 11th Stadium. I am off to do more research.

[Arlo]

chuckr7 is correct! I'd be curious as to what source you're using - I've checked several of mys own, including http://mlb.mlb.com/NASApp/mlb/mlb/histo ... lstargames online, and they all state that Philadelphia's Shibe Park was the site of the 11th game in 1943 (that was the one where McCarthy kept all his Yankees on the bench after being accused of favoritism).

Anyway, you got it! Didn't think this one would be solved so soon...
