Because the park was located on top of a ridge of Manhattan Island, it was nicknamed Hilltop Park, and its team was most often called the <a href="/wiki/New_York_Highlanders" class="mw-redirect" title="New York Highlanders">New York Highlanders</a> (as well as the Americans and the Yankees). This "Highland" connection contrasted with their intra-city rivals, the Giants, whose Polo Grounds was just a few blocks away, in the bottomland under <a href="/wiki/Coogan%27s_Bluff" title="Coogan's Bluff">Coogan's Bluff</a>. </p><p>Hilltop Park sat on the block bounded by <a href="/wiki/Broadway_(Manhattan)" title="Broadway (Manhattan)">Broadway</a>, 165th Street, <a href="/wiki/Fort_Washington_Avenue_(Manhattan)" class="mw-redirect" title="Fort Washington Avenue (Manhattan)">Fort Washington Avenue</a>, and 168th Street. The structure consisted of a covered grandstand stretching from first base to third base and uncovered bleacher sections down the right and left field lines. Originally built in just six weeks, the park sat 16,000, with standing room for an additional 10,000 or so. The bleachers were covered in 1911, and also bleachers to seat an additional 5,000 fans were built in 1911 (partially to accommodate Giants fans, who were temporary tenants after the Polo Grounds fire) in center field. </p><p>The field was initially huge by modern standards — 365 ft (111 m) to left field, 542 ft (165 m) to center field and 400 ft (120 m) to right field. An inner fence was soon constructed to create more realistic action.<sup id="cite_ref-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Both the park and the nickname "Highlanders" were abandoned when the American Leaguers left, at the beginning of the 1913 season, to rent the Polo Grounds from the Giants. The Polo Grounds had a far larger <a href="/wiki/Seating_capacity" title="Seating capacity">seating capacity</a>, and by that time was made of concrete due to the 1911 fire. Hilltop Park was demolished in 1914. </p> <div id="toc" class="toc" role="navigation" aria-labelledby="mw-toc-heading"><input type="checkbox" role="button" id="toctogglecheckbox" class="toctogglecheckbox" style="display:none"><div class="toctitle" lang="en" dir="ltr"><h2 id="mw-toc-heading">Contents</h2><span class="toctogglespan"><label class="toctogglelabel" for="toctogglecheckbox"></label></span></div> <ul> <li class="toclevel-1 tocsection-1"><a href="#History"><span class="tocnumber">1</span> <span class="toctext">History</span></a></li> <li class="toclevel-1 tocsection-2"><a href="#1904"><span class="tocnumber">2</span> <span class="toctext">1904</span></a></li> <li class="toclevel-1 tocsection-3"><a href="#Cy_Young_and_Walter_Johnson"><span class="tocnumber">3</span> <span class="toctext">Cy Young and Walter Johnson</span></a></li> <li class="toclevel-1 tocsection-4"><a href="#Ty_Cobb"><span class="tocnumber">4</span> <span class="toctext">Ty Cobb</span></a></li> <li class="toclevel-1 tocsection-5"><a href="#Hilltop_Park_site_now"><span class="tocnumber">5</span> <span class="toctext">Hilltop Park site now</span></a></li> <li class="toclevel-1 tocsection-6"><a href="#References"><span class="tocnumber">6</span> <span class="toctext">References</span></a></li> <li class="toclevel-1 tocsection-7"><a href="#External_links"><span class="tocnumber">7</span> <span class="toctext">External links</span></a></li> </ul> </div> </section><div class="mw-heading mw-heading2 section-heading" onclick="mfTempOpenSection(1)"><span class="indicator mf-icon mf-icon-expand mf-icon--small"></span><h2 id="History">History</h2><span class="mw-editsection"> <a role="button" href="/w/index.php?title=Hilltop_Park&action=edit&section=1" title="Edit section: History" class="cdx-button cdx-button--size-large cdx-button--fake-button cdx-button--fake-button--enabled cdx-button--icon-only cdx-button--weight-quiet "> <span class="minerva-icon minerva-icon--edit"></span> <span>edit</span> </a> </span> </div><section class="mf-section-1 collapsible-block" id="mf-section-1"> <figure typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Hilltop_Park_Entrance.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><noscript><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/c/c1/Hilltop_Park_Entrance.jpg/240px-Hilltop_Park_Entrance.jpg" decoding="async" width="240" height="166" class="mw-file-element" data-file-width="5436" data-file-height="3752"></noscript><span class="lazy-image-placeholder" style="width: 240px;height: 166px;" data-mw-src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/c/c1/Hilltop_Park_Entrance.jpg/240px-Hilltop_Park_Entrance.jpg" data-width="240" data-height="166" data-mw-srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/c/c1/Hilltop_Park_Entrance.jpg/360px-Hilltop_Park_Entrance.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/c/c1/Hilltop_Park_Entrance.jpg/480px-Hilltop_Park_Entrance.jpg 2x" data-class="mw-file-element"> </span></a><figcaption>The entrance to Hilltop Park, 1912.</figcaption></figure> <p><a href="/wiki/American_League" title="American League">American League</a> <a href="/wiki/Baseball" title="Baseball">baseball</a> came to New York City in 1903 when gambler <a href="/wiki/Frank_J._Farrell" title="Frank J.

Capacity in the dead-ball Era was a flexible concept. In accordance with the practices of the day, overflow crowds were allowed to stand in the perimeter of the outfield. In addition, for "big" games, additional standees were allowed down the foul lines and between home plate and the backstop. Thus the effective overall capacity of the park was closer to 25,000, although even when stuffed to the gills, it fell well short of the normal capacity of the Polo Grounds. </p><p>The original 1903 construction of Hilltop Park cost about $200,000, more than two-thirds of which was spent for <a href="/wiki/Rock_blasting" class="mw-redirect" title="Rock blasting">rock blasting</a> and <a href="/wiki/Excavations" class="mw-redirect" title="Excavations">excavations</a>; and the <a href="/wiki/Groundskeeper" class="mw-redirect" title="Groundskeeper">groundskeeper</a> of the Highlanders, <a href="/w/index.php?title=Phil_Schenck&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Phil Schenck (page does not exist)">Phil Schenck</a>, laid out the <a href="/wiki/Baseball_field" title="Baseball field">playing field</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-8" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-8"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>8<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The ballpark consisted of a covered grandstand of three sections, although it was not actually roofed until June 1 that season. Two sections of the grandstand were parallel to the foul lines and the third section was a short intermediate diagonal, which formed the backstop. The grandstand extended a short way past both first and third bases, and a clubhouse was located behind the center field fence. Single-deck bleachers that extended down both foul lines reached from the grandstand almost to the fences. The third base bleachers were not finished until June 1903. These first and third base bleachers angled towards the foul lines reducing the foul area at the fences to about 15 feet. A modest-sized scoreboard was in fair territory down the left field foul line. The main entrance to the park was on Broadway and a ramp led up to the top of the first base grandstand. Unlike many of the other contemporary wooden ballparks-this one never burned. </p><p>Hilltop Park was not in good condition when it opened. There was a swamp in right field that had yet to be filled with rock, the outfield had no grass, the grandstand had not been completed, and players had to dress at their hotel rooms because the clubhouse was not completed. When Hilltop Park was finally completed, a single-tier wooden covered grandstand extended from the third base dugout to homeplate, and around to the first base dugout. Uncovered grandstands extended to both foul poles. From behind homeplate, fans could see scenic views of the <a href="/wiki/Hudson_River" title="Hudson River">Hudson River</a> and <a href="/wiki/New_Jersey_Palisades" class="mw-redirect" title="New Jersey Palisades">New Jersey Palisades</a>. </p><p>The ball club continued work on the outfield.

The Highlanders added a bleacher section in deep center field, painted black to serve as a batter's eye screen. After two more seasons, the lease expired and the American Leaguers moved a few blocks east and south into the rebuilt Polo Grounds to sub-lease from the Giants.

There was no hint that the club would eventually become baseball's greatest dynasty. Their best season was 1904, when they were in a tight race with Boston all summer. The season ended on October 10, with the Hilltop hosting a doubleheader against Boston, who led by 1 1/2 games. A sweep by the home team would have won the league championship for New York. However, Boston won the first game by scoring a tie-breaking run in the top of the ninth inning. With a Boston runner on third, New York pitcher <a href="/wiki/Jack_Chesbro" title="Jack Chesbro">Jack Chesbro</a> threw a spitball that got away and sailed over the catcher's head. The runner on third easily came across the plate with what proved to be the pennant-clinching run.[<i>Boston Globe</i>, October 11, 1904, p. 11] The <i>Globe</i> giddily called the game "The greatest victory ever won in outdoor sport." </p><p>Although the Highlanders failed to win the league title, their unexpected presence in the pennant race ultimately led to the stabilization of the modern <a href="/wiki/World_Series" title="World Series">World Series</a>.

The resulting public outcry spurred the Giants' owner to organize a committee and establish rules for how future Series were to be conducted. </p> </section><div class="mw-heading mw-heading2 section-heading" onclick="mfTempOpenSection(3)"><span class="indicator mf-icon mf-icon-expand mf-icon--small"></span><h2 id="Cy_Young_and_Walter_Johnson">Cy Young and Walter Johnson</h2><span class="mw-editsection"> <a role="button" href="/w/index.php?title=Hilltop_Park&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: Cy Young and Walter Johnson" class="cdx-button cdx-button--size-large cdx-button--fake-button cdx-button--fake-button--enabled cdx-button--icon-only cdx-button--weight-quiet "> <span class="minerva-icon minerva-icon--edit"></span> <span>edit</span> </a> </span> </div><section class="mf-section-3 collapsible-block" id="mf-section-3"> <figure typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Hilltop_Park_1912.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><noscript><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/98/Hilltop_Park_1912.jpg/255px-Hilltop_Park_1912.jpg" decoding="async" width="255" height="181" class="mw-file-element" data-file-width="901" data-file-height="639"></noscript><span class="lazy-image-placeholder" style="width: 255px;height: 181px;" data-mw-src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/98/Hilltop_Park_1912.jpg/255px-Hilltop_Park_1912.jpg" data-width="255" data-height="181" data-mw-srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/98/Hilltop_Park_1912.jpg/383px-Hilltop_Park_1912.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/98/Hilltop_Park_1912.jpg/510px-Hilltop_Park_1912.jpg 2x" data-class="mw-file-element"> </span></a><figcaption>Hilltop Park in 1912.
