Fenway Park – Boston (#29)
RedSox 6, Diamondbacks 4 I’m down to my final 2 stadiums, and I’ve saved the 2 most storied franchises and the participants in the sport’s biggest rivalry for last. I’m ‘book-ending’ my visits with the two local New York teams and I’ve made my 2nd and penultimate visits the ‘Grand Dame’ ballparks of major league […]
Safeco Field – Seattle (#28)
Seattle 4, St.Louis 3 I knew when I first started planning out my baseball trips that I’d eventually need to get to Seattle and I knew that it would be the biggest challenge of the journey. The ‘Emerald City’ is great place to visit, with or without baseball, and has been one of my top […]
Chase Field – Phoenix (#27)
Cardinals 11 Diamondbacks 4 My final stadium visit on this current trip takes me to the Valley of the Sun. One of the main reasons I planned this trip in April was so I could avoid the furnace like temperatures of Arizona that usually kick in sometime early to mid-May. Also, from what I’ve read, […]
Coors Field – Denver (#26)
Pirates 9, Rockies 4 Day 2 of my latest 4-day stadium tour started with an early AM flight out of Dallas to Denver where I was greeted with temperatures a lot cooler than those I experienced yesterday. More concerning were the overcast skies and the forecast for rain later in the day. My body was […]
Globe Life Park – Arlington, TX (#25)
Yankees 3, Rangers 1 Today was another early rise for me to catch a 6:20 AM Greyhound to Dallas. If any of you have never taken Greyhound in your life, please do so at least once. It is a really ‘interesting’ and ‘unique’ experience. Especially when you take them before the crack of dawn. The […]
Minute Maid Park – Houston (#24)
RedSox 7, Astros 5 So here we are – A new year – A new season! 23 parks down and 7 more left to go! I’m happy to have survived another NJ winter and so happy to welcome another year of baseball. While I’m a little disappointed that I wasn’t able to reach my goal […]
AT&T Park – San Francisco (#23)
Giants 3, Dodgers 2 So, I’ve reached the final game on my agenda for 2015. Just 6 more days and sadly, the 2015 season will come to an end. But what a great park and city to finish the year in. I had an off-day yesterday between games which I spent enjoying the perfect Sunday […]
O.co Coliseum – Oakland (#22)
Giants 14, A’s 10 My day started with an early morning puddle jumper flight from John Wayne airport in Orange County to SFO. I was greeted at the SF airport by an old and dear friend who came to fetch me in her new BMW convertible and would be my host for the next 3 […]
Angel Stadium – Anaheim (#21)
Angels 8, Mariners 4 So, I woke up in LA this morning with some time to kill and decided to take the obligatory bus tour through Hollywood and Beverly Hills (on the upper deck of a 2 story bus in 95 degree heat). It was 25 years since I’d last been to Hollywood, so it […]
Dodger Stadium – Los Angeles (#20)
Dodgers 6, Diamondbacks 3 Another early start for me today. I boarded a 6:15 Greyhound bus in San Diego for (what was supposed to be) a 2 hour trip up north to LA. This particular bus was not one of the better chariots in the Greyhound fleet. Most of the seats and carpet had some […]
