    No, it's not Albert.

    Jim Thome?
    Trying to think of an AL/NL guy from the 90s who would've spanned the 90s/2000s ballpark boom.

    I'd say Griffey or McGriff, but I'm not sure they switched leagues at the right times.

    No, but you're on to it. I believe this guy's MLB career actually began in the late 80s if that helps jog more memory of stadiums that no longer exist.

    Just looked the list up. Apparently it was 45 stadiums instead of 46, and your two guys are right behind the leader.

    My McGwire guess was taken so I went with the other big slugger from that time

    I guess he would have briefly played for the teams then occupying Arlington Stadium and Comiskey Park. Looks like he left the Cubs before the Cardinals moved to Busch III. Guess he could have belted one or two there with either Baltimore or Texas during interleague games. Don't know.

    McGwire? Due to his stints in the NL and AL and playing at a time of a lot of new stadiums?

    Ooops. TB!!!

    I would've guessed Rafael Palmeiro.
