There’s always so many cool and unique things to see and do and eat at a Minor League ballpark that when you’re planning an outing you might neglect to factor in the best part: the game on the field. From Single-A to Triple-A, Minor League rosters are filled with players who have a chance to develop into Major League stars.
That means you have the chance to go see your future favorite big leaguers crushing taters right now. And, with help from MLB Pipeline expert and data junkie Sam Dykstra, we’ve put together a list of the most homer-friendly ballparks across the Minors.
The Minor League season ends earlier than MLB’s — with variation by level — but there’s still time to catch a game at every one of the parks below in 2025, and of course it’s never too early to start planning next year’s ballpark outings.
With that in mind, check out the nine best launch pads in Minor League Baseball, presented by Wyndham.

The dramatic vistas of Charlotte’s downtown skyline are reason enough to get to a Knights game, so the fact that Truist Park is a shoo-in spot for homer watching — with an average of about three and a half jacks per game — makes the home of the Triple-A affiliate of the White Sox a must-visit park for all who dig the longball.
Don’t miss: The murals on the outside of the stadium, near the left-field foul pole, that pay homage to Charlotte’s baseball history.
Notable slugging alumnus: Luis Robert Jr. belted 16 homers — as well as five triples and 10 doubles — in a mere 47 games for the 2019 Knights.

Vegas, baby! The home of the Aviators, Triple-A affiliate of the A’s, opened in 2019. From the very beginning Las Vegas Ballpark has consistently been a safe bet for anybody looking to see some balls soar through the desert air. Bring your mitt and take a stroll along the concourse beyond the outfield walls.
Don’t miss: Splash! Check out pool in right-center field.
Notable slugging alumnus: Tyler Soderstrom spent parts of three seasons with the Aviators (2022-24), hitting 32 home runs in 119 games across that span.

The Amarillo Sod Poodles, a D-backs affiliate since 2021 after starting life in the San Diego system in 2019, have the most homer-happy ballpark at the Double-A level with about three baseballs clearing the wall per game this year.
Don’t miss: 352 Bar in left field is 352 feet from home plate. By all means, enjoy a beverage — but keep one hand free to catch home runs.
Notable slugging alumnus: Corbin Carroll joined the 20-20 club (with 24 homers and 31 stolen bases) in his first full pro season, 2022, and he hit 16 of those jacks (and stole 20 of those bases) over 58 games with the Sod Poodles.

The home of the Everett AquaSox, High-A affiliate of the Seattle Mariners, saw a much higher homer-per-game average (nearly three) than any other park in at the Single-A or High-A level. And with a seating berm in right field and a frequency of gorgeous #baseballskies on display, it’s fantastic place to watch them fly.
Don’t miss: The manually operated scoreboard.
Notable slugging alumnus: Cal Raleigh’s very first professional assignment was to Everett — then a short-season affiliate — in 2018. Despite playing in just 38 of the league’s 76 games, Raleigh led the AquaSox with eight dingers.

The Salt Lake Bees, the Angels’ Triple-A club, opened a new ballpark in the community of Daybreak this year, and there’s no better place in all of baseballdom to watch longballs against a backdrop of purple mountain majesties.
Don’t miss: Grab a churro at the Square Grill out beyond the wall in left-center field and see if somebody can hit one out to you while you eat.
Notable slugging alumnus: The 2025 season was the first for these digs, but Taylor Ward crushed 39 homers for the Bees in 179 games over 2018-19 and ’21, when the team played at Salt Lake’s Smith’s Ballpark.

Papillion, NE 68046

Dimensions: left field, 310 feet; center field, 402 feet; right field, 315 feet

The home of the Omaha Storm Chasers (Triple-A KC) not only features short porches in both corners and hitter-friendly power alleys, it also has ample berm seating along nearly the entirety of the outfield walls. This just may be the easiest spot to catch a home run ball in professional baseball.
Don’t miss: The Wiffle ball diamond out past center field.
Notable slugging alumnus: Vinnie Pasquantino hit 18 bombs for the Storm Chasers over 73 games in 2022.

Dimensions: left field, 339 feet; center field, 410 feet; right field, 340 feet

The Reno Aces, Triple-A affiliate of the D-backs, love hitting into that desert air, and fans love watching the ball disappear into the always-stunning sky. With berm seating in left and left-center, there are also opportunities to watch the ball shooting right at you.
Don’t miss: Walk down the baselines and look back toward home plate for views of the Reno skyline and casino lights.
Notable slugging alumnus: Christian Walker hit 32 homers over 133 games for the Aces in 2017.

The Triple-A club of the Twins, the St. Paul Saints, plays in an intimate ballpark with power alleys hitters love. Fans looking to catch a dinger will know just where to sit: they don’t call the right-field seating section the Home Run Porch for nothin’.
Don’t miss: The City of Baseball Museum down the left-field line, filled with memorabilia, photos and interactive displays.
Notable slugging alumnus: Brent Rooker whacked 20 longballs in just 62 games for the 2021 Saints.
Durham Bulls Athletic Park

Durham, NC, 27701
(919) 687-6500
Dimensions: left field, 303; center field, 395; right field, 329

With a left-field wall just 303 feet away, it’s no wonder DBAP — home of the Durham Bulls (Triple-A TB) — is one of the Minors’ most homer-friendly parks. Although that wall — “the Blue Monster” — is 32 feet tall, the HIT BULL WIN STEAK sign (and lesser-known HIT GRASS WIN SALAD adornment at its base) above it gives sluggers a target.
Don’t miss: Jackie’s Landing, a bar down the right-field line, offers cool views of the field and of the neighborhood outside the ballpark.
Notable slugging alumnus: Directly before Kyle Manzardo went to the Guardians in the 2023 trade for Aaron Civale, he crushed 11 homers in 73 games for the Bulls.
