Rickwood Field – Birmingham, AL (#39)
Earlier this season, MLB announced incorporation of Negro League stats into the established MLB record book – players such as Josh Gibson, Satchel Page, Cool Papa Bell and Oscar Charleston now finally have their numbers sitting side by side on the all-time leader boards along with Cobb, Ruth, Pujols and Matthewson As part of a […]
Estadio Alfredo Harp Helu – Mexico City (#38)
Padres 16, Giants 11 It’s been just about a year since my last new stadium visit in Arlington, TX. What started out as almost constant activity of planning and then taking new trips has sadly ground to a near halt. The reason being, I’m all out of stadiums to visit! There are plans for future […]
Globe Life Field – Arlington, TX (#37)
Rangers 9, Rays 5 In September 2018 I had a wonderful weekend trip to Atlanta where I got to see my beloved Mets (with Jacob deGrom on the hill) face the Braves in the newly minted Truist (then called SunTrust) field and the following evening I attended the first ever regular season game played by […]
Sahlen Field – Buffalo (#36)
RedSox 13, BlueJays 4 For the second time this year – I am attending a Toronto Blue Jays home game, which is NOT being played in Toronto. The venue this time is starkly different than where I saw them play just a mere 9 weeks ago. Back in May, the Jays were playing their regular […]
TD Ballpark – Dunedin, FL (#35)
BlueJays 10, Phillies 8 I never expected that I’d have to go this long between my blog posts. Seems like yesterday spring training 2020 was underway with the promise of another exciting season. I purchased my tickets and booked my travel for what I was expecting to be fun and exciting trips to Puerto Rico […]
London Stadium (#34)
Yankees 17, RedSox 13 When they announced last year that they would London would be hosting the first ever MLB gamer played in Europe, I was thrilled. Even more when it was announced that it would showcase one of the greatest rivalries in American sports history – the Yankees and Red Sox. So, I […]
TD Ameritrade Park – Omaha (#33)
Royals 7, Tigers 3 When they first announced last year that there would be a major league game played in Omaha in 2019, I got kind of excited. First, because it gave me another new stadium to visit but mainly since it gave me a great reason to visit a part of the country that […]
Tokyo Dome (#32)
Mariners 5 A’s 4 Even though I have seen a game at all active MLB host venues, my goal is to attend a regular season game regardless of where it’s played – even if that means travelling to the other side of the world. There have been international exhibition MLB games as far back as […]
SunTrust Park – Atlanta (#31)
Mets 7 Braves 3 Last October, I attended the season finale at Yankee stadium, a game they lost to the Orioles 5 to 2. In doing so, I completed my goal of attending a game in every one of the MLB host stadiums. That distinction, it turned out, was pretty short lived as the Atlanta […]
Yankee Stadium – New York (#30)
Orioles 5 Yankees 2 So, here I am. The final stadium on my list. The end of my journey. I started this journey last year on Opening Day in Citi Field New York so, it’s only fitting that I close it out on the final game of the season in the other NY venue, the […]
