MLB Stadium Tours

  • The Seattle Baseball Scene

    Safeco Field (Seattle Mariners): 8 In honor of Major League Baseball Opening Day 2016, it’s high time I got around to publishing my thoughts on the Seattle Mariners stadium, which I visited alllll the way back in October for the last regular season series against the Oakland Athletics.

  • The Unexpected Baseball Town of Pittsburgh

    PNC Park (Pittsburgh Pirates): 8.5 PNC has been all the rave among everyone I have ever talked to about it. Pirates and non-Pirates fans alike, have promised me this will be my favorite ballpark. Lots of people, mostly fans of their native ballpark, say this to me, but I have to agree, PNC might be…Keep…

  • A Family Ball Yard

    A Family Ball Yard

    Citizens Bank Park (Philadelphia Phillies): 7.5 I was excited for the Philadelphia component of my trip. I think by now it’s common knowledge that I always enjoy when I can combine a baseball stadium trip and a Mets road series, so the fact that these two things lined up to coincide makes the trip more…Keep…

  • Making Friends at the Yard

    Coors Field (Colorado Rockies): 7.5 This post about Coors Field is long over due. Normally it doesn’t take me this long to get a review of my latest stadium up, but sadly, adult life (read: a full-time job) got in the way of posting in a timely fashion. So let’s pretend that I have just…Keep…

  • The Only Trip to Dodger Stadium I Will Ever Make

    Dodger Stadium (Los Angeles Dodgers): 5 Oh Dodger Stadium. We have such a love-hate relationship. By birth, I’m a Giants fan, and was therefore raised to loathe you. Yet, when I entered, I thought, “self, this isn’t so bad. Just rip the band-aid off and go for it.” And for about 3 innings I was…Keep…

  • CL’s Summer Baseball- Desert Swing Edition

    Chase Field (Arizona Diamondbacks): High 6/Low 7 I’ve wrapped up two more ballparks in my quest to see all the MLB yards…this swing was a quick one, since I have events at work all weekend but I managed to steal some time for a spin through Arizona to see Chase Stadium and Thursday night will…Keep…

  • Mets 9, Reds 7. Winner? Me.

    Citi Field (New York Mets): 7 Today was an exciting day. Today, ladies and gentleman, I continued my baseball stadium expedition and visited Citi Field, home to the New York Mets and, more importantly, David Wright. Who is awesome, in case you didn’t know. Jersey J and I took the subway (obvi) and were greeted…Keep…

  • Perks of the Job

    Perks of the Job

    Angels Stadium (Los Angels Angels of Anaheim): TBD To be fair, I got a chance to visit this stadium for work and so I didn’t have a chance to actually go through my checklist of criteria and see how it stacked up. I got to watch the game from a suite, was on the field…Keep…

  • Now THIS is a roadtrip

    Now THIS is a roadtrip

    Detroit, Cleveland, Cincinnati, St. Louis, Kansas City, Field of The Dreams, and Milwaukee Comerica Park (Detroit Tigers): 7.5 I flew into Detroit and took in a Tigers game on a Friday night. Let’s just say that the bar was set pretty high for the first night. Our tickets were club level, in an area that…Keep…
