There's no experience quite like walking into a major league baseball park for the first time. Even the ugly parks are big and impressive and green, with so much to see.

So go see them, says Timothy Malcolm. He's a former baseball writer and avid fan of the Philadelphia Phillies.

Malcolm did and wrote a Moon Travel Guide to map your way to the park in Philly and all of the other diamonds; Baseball Road Trips: The Complete Guide to All the Ballparks, with Beer, Bites, and Sights Nearby.

Even travelers who don't follow baseball can find new places to love, as the book includes attractions in major league cities outside the friendly confines of the ballparks. The author visits with highlights.
