While the Philadelphia Athletics’ Shibe Park (later, Connie Mack Stadium) predated Forbes by two months, nothing in baseball’s brief history to that time rivaled the two-tiered palace that Pirates owner Barney Dreyfuss dedicated before a Cubs-Pirates game on June 30, 1909. Fittingly, the Cubs will honor the anniversary by playing in Pittsburgh tonight.

100 years ago today. How about that!
