2020 Around the MLB Thread

[Urban]

I thought Oakland was nicer when I went

Fair enough. Thought Fenway has a certain charm to it. Meanwhile, Oakland has a baseball diamond in arguably the worst NFL football stadium. Stark contrast from the Giants across the Bay, which I'd rank as my #1

AT&T is up there with PNC and Citizen’s Bank for me

Agree. I sat in upper deck along right field and view of Bay and kayaks was tremendous.

I sat in a similar place. Gorgeous view.

For intimacy, give me a front row seat in the left field upper deck at old Tiger Stadium. The stands actually
hung over the field. Good interplay with the outfielders.

My favorite old dump. One of the few old stadiums I wish could have been saved. Took a bus trip there as a kid to watch the Tribe, might as well have been a home game there were that many Indians fans.

A bit like old Comiskey....those were fun parks, though they of course lack almost ALL the creature comforts of modern parks, including well working bathrooms.

Pittsburgh’s park is tops for me...intimate, great views from all spots, beautifully set. SF is splendid...I like Seattle, too.

Haven’t been to Seattle yet. Had them and both LA teams in the plans for this year before COVID.

Seattle is a great park - love to watch games there. Make a couple trips up from CA yearly.

I guess if you want to be on the leader board for starters in fWar, you pitch in Ohio.

Must be something in the water.

If you're making trips to MLB cities why go to Seattle?

I'm not sure what they have going on there qualifies as a MLB team.

Agree. It is hard not to call it Safeco anymore though. Also have to deal with frequent loud train noise and whistles. Summers in Seattle well worth the trip.

My completed list includes ballparks in Seattle, SF, Oakland, San Diego, Phoenix, Denver, Minneapolis, Chicago Wrigley, Baltimore, Washington, and of course Cleveland.
