I've been to 18 stadiums and these 6 are also ones I need to attend along with others on the east coast, Atlanta, Miami and Texas. Went to old Rangers Park but now have to go to new one. 

I have been to most... my favorites are probably the three oldest..1. Cubbies 2. Red Sox 3. Dodgers...a 60's flair and nobody else has Dodger dogs..simply the best

Kreidler remains our most athletic player and I will not hear otherwise.

Honestly, it looks like the Twins are playing a high school team.

All six could be knocked out in a week. Tell Mrs. Chief it is an anniversary or birthday present for her/you. She will be overjoyed! You’re welcome….

MLB has told it's official scorers to award errors only only plays that would have been made by "an average fielder with ordinary effort."

Players are spoiled compared to old time scoring  for sure - thanx

Jack was your cousin?

Can't even say which one; I was at the last ever family reunion 16 years ago, and the next year so many died or ended up in a nursing home, never had one again.

Pablo in the booth is really, really good. This weekend has been the best broadcasts of the season. He has the ability to bring so much knowledge, make it relatable and avoid turning it into a look at me thing. Bright future after his playing career is done.

Are we sure it’s not a high school team with all of their injuries?

As someone who’s only gone to Target Field and the Metrodome?

Take a drive to KC for a series next year. 6 hrs from MPLS. Beautiful stadium. Eat some BBQ. Not expensive. Worth every penny. Milwaukee and Chicago are also easy drives.

Join SABR  They've had national conventions in each of these places in the past couple of decades.  Heading back to Cleveland this coming week.

Ditto. ST Louis as well for me. Which is why I claim "cities" vice stadiums. Soon I'll need to add Las Vegas I guess. Easy drive for me from Tucson.

Pittsburgh is Chief Jr's fave, and he's been to quite a few.

Who in their right mind thinks Corey Provus looks like Rocco?

After the game, so maybe some libations were involved?

You will be sorely disappointed with the new one. It’s a sterile, corporate feeling

I wish that I could see Shelton do a booth broadcast.. probably unlikely anytime soon... maybe a future Molitor down the line

CP dealing.

Chief Jr is a USAF pilot and recently he and his family PCS'd to Andrews AFB outside DC. Mrs Chief and I are already planning a trip to see the grandkids for next June. A ballgame at Philly will for sure be on the agenda. Depending on how it all works out she and I might drive from MPLS. If so, there will be baseball on both ends of the trip. Even if Mrs Chief doesn't yet know it.
