I remember starting something like this a few years back but just kinda giving up because I got lazy. Great job on this. However, I'm not sure that's the right baseball field from "Field Of Pete"... From my days of searching, I remember searching for distinct features in the geography, specifically an auxiliary scoreboard in the outfield, and the snack shack that they sold the Orange Lazarus out of... This field you pointed out doesn't have those things. Also, I would love to grab a slice from the pizza shop in "The Trouble With Teddy."
Update: Took a look at the credits at the end of "The Trouble With Teddy", and saw a special thanks to "The Pizza House" in Cranford, NJ. Here's a link to the Google map:
It's the right field. You have to remember that it has been over 15 years since the series filmed, so some things are going look at least a little different. As for The Pizza House, it was closed in the late 90's-early 00's. The barber shop used in "Saturday" closed down also.
Wanted to add: I use bing.com and google maps when searching. Bing has a great bird's eye view map which when used with Google street views give you a better layout of the location you're looking at.
