Lots of Brewer colors in the stands when Fox camera's span the crowd...

That’s kinda cherry picking for every network at every game

I liked the Trop more then the stadium in Houston.

Been to Miami?  Any comparison to offer?

?????

When the camera pans "the whole field" the number of fans looks very close, not cherry picking anything. 

Crowd noise seem to correspond with live views of the stands, maybe push your fake news somewhere else...

Dude…. the camera angle cherry picks the crowd to make it look like that maybe it’s equal. Slow down…. the network has one job to do….. don’t make anyone have an excuse to turn the channel

Yes saw the Rockies  play the Marlins when we had a couple days to kill before getting on a cruise ship.  Saw Julien hit an RBI double.

Place was empty with tickets 16 rows up behind home plate we bought walking up to the box office going for about $50 each. 

I thought Trop was nicer.  It seemed like you walked length of a basketball court to get from top row of seats to a concession stand.  That could be due to crowd size and openness of the concession area.  My wife liked it better then Houston stadium but she really hated that place.  I put it even with Houston as a blah nothing special  baseball venue.  It's room temperature water memorable as an experience except Juliens double.

Are you a politician in 2026? Well you f****n suck. They're going to drain your bank account and probably starve you. Vote for anyone else

Does that sum up the political ads that are relentless on every live sporting event? Doesn't matter the state...

Never seen a game in Tampa.  Miami is basically my lowest-ranked ballpark - ugly colors everywhere, incessant music that prevents conversation between innings about what you've just watched.  Houston is nearly as bad with that short porch in left plus piped-in crowd noise when I was there years ago.  Ballparks can be bad in different ways leading to difficulty in declaring one worse than another, but I don't hate indoor parks per se - Texas is a good park to watch a game in, likewise Arizona.  If you say the park in Tampa is better than Miami it still leaves a lot of room for suckitude.

Worst indoor sports experience for me was NFL in Indianapolis's old place.  That was like watching a game in someone's unfinished basement.

OTOH I had a great experience in Houston's ballpark with a group of Europeans who were curious about the game.  Much depends on outside factors.

That does exist, thanks for the reminder

I wonder how Brock is doing over there tonite…

The site traffic just might be a bigger problem on that website than here...

We basically went in Miami to cross it off the ballpark list.

Anyone still believe that 45 cameras can still get it right? 
nope because it’s impossible unless you can see it from 360 degrees. Maybe someday….
