Bing MLB Baseball Quiz – Ballparks, Records and Teams
Baseball has been called America's pastime for more than a century. Every game produces a box score full of numbers, but the stories behind those numbers are what make the sport special, from historic ballparks to record streaks and long-awaited championships.
Ballparks are part of the charm. Fenway Park in Boston, opened in 1912, is the oldest in the majors and features the Green Monster wall. Wrigley Field in Chicago is famous for its ivy. Both have seen generations of fans and countless dramatic moments.
Some championships took a very long time. The Boston Red Sox ended the Curse of the Bambino in 2004, and the Chicago Cubs won in 2016 after 108 years. The New York Yankees, meanwhile, have collected 27 titles, more than any other team.
Baseball's history also includes moments of real change. Jackie Robinson broke the color barrier in 1947, and every April 15 all players wear his number 42. Records such as Cal Ripken Jr.'s 2,632 straight games and Barry Bonds's 73 home runs still spark debate, while Shohei Ohtani's two-way play has thrilled a new generation.
