The ballpark trips are getting tougher now that we're down to the parks that are kind of isolated. We did get out to Chase Field though to see our Cubbies play the Diamondbacks so that was another park to add to the list!
We also went to the last Opening Day at Turner Field and have tickets to the last Braves game there as well. Hard to believe that Turner Field is being replaced so soon and the new ballpark is so far out of the city that it may as well be in Tennessee -- don't know how many of those games we'll go to once they move.
We're also doing our annual pilgrimage to Wrigley -- it's a lot tougher and more expensive to get tickets this year! But if that's the consequence of a great season, I'll take it!
Really wish I'd found this site a few years (ballparks) ago!
Morning Craig I do have a trip coming up this summer. I plan on being in Denver around July 22 and than on to Kansas City to see my Angels play. Always wondering where to stay and best brew house's around walking distance to coors field.. If you can help, let me know.

Hi Craig,
Just finished a trip. We started in Cooperstown and then went to Pittsburg to catch a Pirates game. The following day we were off to Louisville to get a personalized bat on our way to Atlanta. We attended our 30th Major League ballpark catching a game. It has taken my dad and I three years to accomplish this goal after he retired. I want to thank you for I have referenced your site to help us along the way. I tell everyone that wants to see a major league ballgame away from our home park which is Comerica to go to ballpark chasers. Thank you, thank you thank you
Hi Craig!
We're jeaing to Chicago & St. Louis in 2 weeks... We will see the Cubs, White Sox and Cardinals. Then in July well hit the SoCal teams Dodgers, Angels and possibly Padres. Finally over Labor Day well be in New York visiting the Mets and Yankees. Camt wait to see all the stadiums!!
I wish I had known about this website last year as I hit 4 parks and would have loved to contribute! One of the parks was Camden Yards otherwise I would come to the ballpark meetup in August. No new ballparks this year but next year for sure. Thanks for such a great idea for a website where we can all come together and share the love for ballparks.
Thanks, Craig! This year I've gone to two games at Busch, four at Wrigley and three at Nationals Park. I might get to Miami this year if I can find a decent priced flight. Miami and the two in New York are the only ones left for me at least until Atlanta opens their new one. Hopefully Tampa and Oakland can get new ones so I'll have more parks to visit!
Hey Craig,
Thanks for the words of welcome, I just finished a trip to Turner Field, Orioles Park, and Nationals Park but I'll be sure to let you know of any future trips I plan (next might be Tampa but I haven't decided yet)

Just got home from Atlanta!! The Brewers swept the braves!! It was my first sweep ever!! Went to all 3 games. They are really getting ready for the new stadium to open next year.
Craig, Thank you for the words of welcome. This summer I will be attending games At Fenway Park, Yankee Stadium, and AAA games in Syracuse and Toledo. Pete Stevens
Thanks Craig...we are headed out West in 2 weeks...Arizona, LA (Dodgers & Angels), and SD to see our Nats...any tips appreciated...that will make 27 of 30 for me and my son, started in 2007 one week each summer...Eric
Flying out for games in Seattle Aug 4 & 5. Flights are booked but need a hotel, I'm noticing prices near park are outrageous even compared to most downtown areas. Any suggestions of a location that is still convenient for an Uber to park or something would be great. Also still looking for tickets. Tips on sections to avoid or great seats for the price also greatly appreciated
Hi Craig - Thanks for the welcome! Yes, we have a big trip planned with our boys (ages 10 and 12) this summer. We hit Yankee Stadium on Mother's Day with tickets from Santa to our youngest and got the first stamp in our Passport book. In August, we are taking an epic two-week road trip from our hometown in Philly and visiting Progressive Field, Comerica Park, U.S. Cellular, Wrigley, Miller Park, and PNC Park. Your website has been invaluable in our planning, especially the hotel recommendations, so thank you!!! We can't wait to update from the road. Julie
Thanks for the welcome. Yeah, the wife and I are planning on knocking out another four parks this year. We're doing Coors in June when we're out visiting some friends, and then we're going to do Citizens, Yankee Stadium, and Nationals Park during a long weekend in July. Looking forward to seeing what kind of greeting we get in Yankee Stadium being lifelong Sox fans. :)
hey Craig thanks for the welcome. My wife and I bought a retirement home in SW Florida and are going to drive over to Miami for a game in late July. It just happens to be a bobblehead game which like a weirdo I collect. Enjoy your site.
