Hi,Craig - Thanks for the welcome. Trying to figure out a good trip for this summer. Season tix for Padres keeps me at Petco a lot (17 games to date), but will definitely go on the road. Last summer my son and I caught a Saturday night game at Petco, got in the car at 10 PM or so, drove through the night to Oakland for a Sunday day game at O.co, followed by Monday night at AT&T in SF, and Tuesday back down south for a game in LA (well, Anaheim of LA!!).Four ballparks, Four cities, in Four days. Had been to all before, just cool to do the 4x4x4. Any suggestions for another part of the country where we could try that?

Thanks for the welcome, nothing planned as of yet. Trying to figure something into holidays not conflicting with kids sports.

Thanks Craig.  We are scheduled to go to Detroit in early July.  I am currently scheduling a trip in August to see the Mets, Yankees, Phillies, Nationals, and Orioles in 5 days.  Love to hear any suggestions that you may have.

Thanks so much!  We'll be only hitting our local parks (Dodgers, Angels, and Padres) this year.  Next year will probably be Giants, A's, Mariners, Rockies and Diamondbacks.  So we'll be looking for advice for sure next season!

Hi Craig,
Thanks for the welcome. Love the site! I'm trying to get my 12-year-old caught up with me on stadiums. We are going to do Citi Field this summer. Wrigley, Safeco, and PNC are top of our lists to see after that!

Going to St. Louis and Busch Stadium on July 5th. But hate to have that as my first stamp so trying to get down to Great American first.

Thanks Craig!  I'm just getting back into this.  A lot of what I've been to, no longer exist! I am returning to Toronto and maybe Yankee stadium.  But otherwise, no big plans this season, but plotting and planning for the future!

Thanks Craig!  The chaser guides have been a huge help in the planning of my trip.  I'll be visiting:

Phillies, Orioles, Nationals, Pirates, Reds, Cardinals, Royals, Rockies, Twins, Cubs, White Sox, Yankees, Mets, Red Sox, Tigers, Indians, Blue Jays, Mariners

Can't wait!

Back to Dodger stadium next week, trying to plan a trip to SF, and been to 4 games at Chase this year.

Hello Craig, great site and enjoying looking around.  We have been to Rangers &  Astros in April, we got to Royals in May. Still trying to work out rest of season.  Hopefully we can get to Seattle in July, Philadelphia and New York (Mets) in August and the Angels, Padres and Dodgers over Labor Day.  Love visiting each park and the cities.

Hey Craig, great site, thanks for the note.  Just got back from southern California where we saw the Twins/Padres at Petco and Royals/Angels in Anaheim.  My count is at 10, but my 9 yr old and I are trying to hit all 30 before he grads high school - together we've only got four down so far, but looking at a Chi or KC/Stl trip later this summer.  -Matt

Hey Craig. Love the site! My family and I are planning on hitting the Missouri ballparks this year.  We will start in St. Louis and then drive over to KC to see a Royals game.  Any suggestions for good baseball themed restaurants or activities in the areas? We love to turn these trips into great baseball themed vacations. These 2 ballparks will bring us up to #17 and  18 ballparks for us....Eric

Hey craig,how is your tour of ballparks going.
At 5:31pm on May 22, 2014, Ray McWhorter said…

Thanks Craig. Yes, My wife Holly and I already have tickets for a Toronto game in late June. We will also be in Phoenix in late July for a Diamondbacks game. Those two games will be parks #17 & #18

Yes thanks. I have several planned. I have a question about the Blue Jays's stadium. Specifically, is there a light-rail/subway between airport and stadium? Either airport, as I know there are two that I can choose from. I am looking for a hit and run....fly in for a day game and leave in the evening. Any suggestions.?

Thanks, Craig.

Will do.

I have some pictures of me in Connie Mack Stadium, Forbes Field, Comiskey Park, and Yankee Stadium, all from 1960s. I have many other pictures as well but do not have a scanner so I am at a loss here on how to get them to you.

Hi Craig, Thanks for the note. Not much planned for this year. I live in Connecticut, will see Red Sox play 3 times in Boston. Will attend a game at McCoy Stadium in Pawtucket, R.I., on Father's Day with wife, son, and grandson. We are going to Montral in June and plan a stop in Burlington, Vt., for an NY-P League game there. And we will attend games in New Britain, Norwich, and Bridgeport. I have been attending MLB games since early 1950s. My father and grandfather were ball park chasers generations before it was popular. I have seen baseball games in every one of the World War I era of ball parks, including Braves Field, Ebbets Field, Griffith Stadium, all of them. I have never watched a game in Seattle, Minnesota, or Phoenix. Otherwise I have been in pretty much all of the rest of them with exception of some of of the newer ones (Phila., Cleve., Miami, Cinci, St. Louis, Texas, SD, SF have yet to be seen). I have pix of me in such lost worlds as Comiskey Park, Forbes Field, Connie Mack Stadium, etc. My favorite of them all is Connie Mack Stadium, and I really like PNC Field. I have been to dozens of minor league fields, from McAllen, Texas, to Terre Haute, Indiana, and all around. My wife prefers the minor leagues, our 4 sons have been in many parks as well. We used to take an annual summer jaunt to The Lonliest Place in North America. That would be the Stade Olympique in Montreal during the last few seasons!

Hey Craig, thanks for reaching out! I got out to Progressive Field to watch the jays beat up on the Indians earlier this summer, and I'm hoping to check out another new park this weekend, but I don't know where yet!

I actually do have a plan to try to hit 4 parks over 4 days during memorial day weekend.  Hoping to go from PNC Park on Friday to Great American Ballpark on Saturday then Comerica on Sunday and Miller Park on Monday.  I work for Delta Air Lines so get free flights (if there is a seat open) so hoping everything will work on next weekend.  

I've enjoyed the website for where to sit and when to go.  The only piece I would maybe find helpful is public transportation to the games.  I realize probably most chasers are driving but public transportation would save me a lot of cash on my trip as a potential section to add to the website.
