AutoZone Park, a jewel of a ballpark in the heart of downtown, is the home of the Memphis Redbirds, the Triple A farm club of the St. Louis Cardinals. The park, which opened in 2000, was ranked the number one Minor League ballpark in 2008 by Basebal America. The park combines the feel of the great baseball parks such as Wrigley Field, Fenway Park, and Camden Yards and features the largest video screen in the minor leagues to create a fun experience for the fans while reminding them of the history and beauty of the national pastime. Since 1998, more than 400 Memphis Redbirds have made their way to the Major Leagues, including Albert Pujols, Yadier Molina, and last year's rookie sensation Michael Wacha.
