Recent Trips

Miller Park in Milwaukee a few weeks ago was great - had good food too. Lousy Phillies games. Minor league parks in Appleton, Wisconsin, Spokane, Washington, Helena and Great Falls, Montana, and Boise, Idaho were all very good places to watch a game, with Helena's Kindrick Legion Field, surrounded by mountains in the distance, having the prettiest setting.

Summer Tour 2013

For the past seven years me and my son (age 17) and a couple uncles (my best friends) go to Cooperstown for the induction ceremony. This has been a fun way to teach my son about the game and it's rich history. Since there is no real inductions this year, we decided to tour the mid-west.

The Players:

3 men in their mid 40's

2 teenage boys

The plan:

Drive roughly 2,400 miles in 5 days and see three games and tour one stadium (Arrowhead). We will visit Kansas…

Cataloging your chase

Hey Chasers,

One of the questions that hasn't been asked too often is, "How do you catalog your trip(s)" Most of us have photos, tickets, etc. But some have a quirky side as well, "I'm not leaving this park until I get a ball."

What do you do to catalog? What would you have done differently?

Keep the Quest going.

Just found this place...

I usually send this out via e-mail to all of the people that I think might be interested in such things, but I figured this might be a more efficient way of getting the word out to those folks.

Due to a number of scheduling problems, we were finally able to get a crew of five people lined up for a trip to the East Coast. We were scheduled to see a game every single day for eight days. It made for something of a tight schedule, but we left early for Cleveland, Ohio on June…

Jackie Robinson the Player

Jackie Robinson the Player

We all know that Jackie Robinson was the man who broke the color barrier. His place in history was already set before he even stepped onto Ebbets Field. What feeds his legacy is the fact that he was a great player. He endured so much in his life, yet he still put up amazing numbers. His career stats are not often spouted because he only played ten seasons. Also he did not make his MLB debut till age 28. His numbers can hardly be compared to other players who…

Baltimore - Orioles/Tigers, 6/1/13

Went to Baltimore for the day. Taxi to and from the airport. Started in Eutaw Street where the smell of the food was great. There were cool statues of the Oriole greats inside and one of Brooks Robinson outside, too. It was a little disappointing that some of the player's plaques were on the wall behind the food tents and hard to see. Nice open concourses and even free ice to combat the hot day.…
