yankee stadium
the largest currently-used mlb ballpark is dodger stadium, with a listed capacity of 56,000. it is the only current ballpark that could theoretically break the mlb single season attendance record under the current schedule of 4,483,350 (55,350 per game), set by the colorado rockies in 1993 during their inaugural season at mile high stadium. the rockies were on pace to break their record in the 1994 season before it was cut short by a strike, and moved to the 46,897-seat coors field the following year. the second largest mlb stadium is rogers centre, home of the toronto blue jays and the first ballpark to record four million fans in a season, but which at a current listed capacity of 49,282 could not break the rockies' record even under the most improbable one-game playoff scenarios.
