Methodology
How the Ranking Works
Action Network screened the 2026 MLB home schedule through September 27. The Top 10 ranking covers three different teams at home on consecutive Friday, Saturday and Sunday dates beginning July 31. In the personalized finder, Weekend only uses the same Friday-to-Sunday definition, while Flexible dates expands the search to three games across three to five days, including weekday travel, beginning July 27.
Ballpark Experience is the average venue score of the three stops. Each venue score comes from Action Network’s 2026 MLB venue dataset, which combines family game-day cost with indicators of the fan experience around the ballpark. The Overall Trip Score then combines that measure with driving convenience and calibrates the result without forcing the best trip to equal 100.
Total distance and drive time cover Ballpark 1 → Ballpark 2 → Ballpark 3 only. They do not include the journey home. Estimates also exclude traffic, parking and border delays.
