<p>Jon, I strongly suggest that you go to see all three ballparks in a few days. Let me know when you're looking to go there. I've been to those ballparks numerous times. I always drive. I can give you the tricks of the trade you need to make it a painless and affordable experience. In addition, I recommend that you invest in some Ballpark E-Guides from fellow ballpark chaser, Kurt Smith. Tell him I referred you. He'll give you a great deal.

<p>Nationals tickets go on sale in early March as I got an email from them last week. Friends of mine and I are trying to figure out where to see the Nationals this year. May go see them in NY (closest stadium to me is Citi Field)</p>

<p>Awesome pics. Thanks. I should hopefully have my travel plans figured out by this weekend, then I just need to wait for tickets to go on sale for the games. Baltimore seems to be the only team with individual game tickets on sale so far.</p>

<p>Ive never sat in those seats for a game but walking behind them on Eutaw St, its a great view. But you will have the warehouse to your back so I would make sure to at least walk around and get pics from 3rd Base side looking out too. I love the warehouse as a backdrop for the game.</p>
<p>i added a couple of pics from my 2011 trip and 1 from 2012. First one is from the Upper Deck 1B side. Sat there for 7 hours that night. Game started on time and 5 minutes later, a 3.5 hour rain delay…</p>

<p>i added a couple of pics from my 2011 trip and 1 from 2012. First one is from the Upper Deck 1B side. Sat there for 7 hours that night. Game started on time and 5 minutes later, a 3.5 hour rain delay started. Game resumed and it ended at 2:30 that morning on a walk off Grand Slam by Ryan Zimmerman. 2nd pic is from Section 100 in CT. The 3rd Base side one is from this year and my favorite spot in the park.</p> Thanks Tim.

<p>Thanks Tim. Looking at their site, it looks like they do sell the tickets behind the press box, so I'll look out to avoid those.</p>
<p>Where my tickets are will depend on if I've got friends going with me and how much they're willing to spend on seats. <br></br>Tenative plans now have me going to two games in DC, one in Baltimore and one in Philly. But that could still change at this point.</p>

<p>For Camden Yards, go with Field Level but I would make sure that you are either in Straight Away LF or right behind the Dugouts. The sections in Foul Ground b/w the bases and the Foul Pole are angled slightly away from Home Plate giving you a funny angle to look at. There are also a few rows of seats behind Home Plate where your view is blocked by the Press Box (not sure if they still sell these tickets so just watch out.)

<p>For Camden Yards, go with Field Level but I would make sure that you are either in Straight Away LF or right behind the Dugouts.

There are also a few rows of seats behind Home Plate where your view is blocked by the Press Box (not sure if they still sell these tickets so just watch out.) Ive been to a bunch of games here and found that the food is excellent with a good beer selection but we always pregame somewhere in the Inner Harbor and then go to the park. Make sure to spend time on Eutaw Street walking around after entering the stadium. My only complaint is the enclosed concourse. I will never forget the night Manny Ramirez hit HR #500. Loudest I have heard a ballpark. Orioles fans were celebrating with it. I could never have imagined that he would be traded 2 months later...And be happy about it.</p>
