The Yankees and Giants shared the Polo Grounds in 1921 and 1922. I can't think of a fourth. The Red Sox and Boston Braves shared Fenway Park briefly but don't think they played in a World Series.

The 2020 series was played strictly at Globe Life Field in Arlington, Texas, between the Dodgers and Rays (and the Rays did not win, unfortunately).

The remaining one happened in 1944 at Sportsman's Park in St. Louis when the Cardinals defeated the St. Louis Browns in the only all-St. Louis "Streetcar Series".

I mistakenly thought Candlestick got ‘Red tagged’ and they moved games three and four to the Oakland Coliseum for the sweep.

I had just popped a cork on a fine bottle Sauvignon blanc and was settling in to watch the game. Crazy, Candlestick started shacking, then seconds later we started shacking. Then bam, the broadcast ended.

I remember watching news clips on the news over and over. But you lived the experience and became a city of champions! Oakland did, I mean (close enough).
