Memorable Moments:
The Metropolitans played here for just a short period of time. This is probably because the numerous factories located on the East River made the air dangerous for fans. This was a small park, and high winds caused a lot of homers. On July 17, the Mets moved to the Polo Grounds I, and only went back to this park when the Giants were scheduled at the Polo Grounds.
