Camden Yards is an iconic ballpark. So iconic in fact that since its inception in 1992, barely any changes have been made to it.

<em>Ten</em>, named for Mookie Blaylock’s number, is 30 years old (Mookie is now 54… How’s THAT feel?!)
There was a time when I used to mark the inevitable march of time by how long ago Pearl Jam’s album Ten came out.
