just a few words before I go

I must say that this has probably been one of the best years for me and major league baseball. Not only did I get to see my fourth major league game this weekend (and nearly a no hitter one at that), but my Phillies made it to the playoffs! Are you kidding me?? Autumn is by far the best season in the year and for so many reasons. One being the fact that the major league playoffs and the world series take place. I’m very excited that both the Phils and the Cubs are in it this year.

Like I mentioned, I got to see four games this year in four different venues. I’ve dropped in some photos of the four: Kansas City, San Francisco, St. Louis and Cincinnati. In order of greatness, San Francisco wins hands down. Just a beautiful, wonderful ball park. The people working there were all very friendly and helpful and I can’t wait to get back. St. Louis and Cincinnati probably tie for second. Both stadiums are relatively new and vastly improved over the old venues. St. Louis may actually get the edge just because the placement of the stadium and the view of the arch are perfect. Plus, their fans seemed a little more fervent. Kansas City’s Kauffman Stadium is pretty old school and the club level seating leaves a lot to be desired. However, the parking is much better since they are away from the downtown area and the staff was very friendly and helpful. But if I had to choose one, it would be AT&T Park. No question. Next year, I hope to hit four more stadiums in my quest to see them all, and definitely go back to San Fran.
