I would definitely include Shibe Park and Forbes Field because of their importance in being the first modern (steel and concreete) ballparks built in the U.S..
So my charter members would be:
Shibe Park
Forbes Field
Wrigley Field
Fenway Park
Yankee Stadium

Shibe Park
Polo Grounds
Wrigley Field
Fenway Park
Yankee Stadium
Sixth park: L.A. Wrigley, deserving of first class status, but the other 5 are superior.
