Wow, that *is* beautiful.

Are those stands out by the left field foul pole?

They look like bar height tables with chairs from here.

It's not the Green Monstah but it looks pretty cool...and you could probably see the game alot better too.

Who are the Phillies playing?

I will be at the Braves / Tigers game Sun in Bradenton. Can't wait to see the new Braves outfield.

many times teams don't send their best players to away games - especially far distance games away from their home training area - don't be surprised to see minor leaguers filling a lot of spots - except maybe the Upton boys need to get some playing time together.

visited Bradenton's park today (Bosox vs Pirates). They did a nice job in renovating - $10 mil worth from my understanding - get views from the bleachers in the outfield. Good time was had.

I was at the field a few days ago. The field is nice, the $7 hamburgers and $9 beers kinda sucked though. I was able to talk to the Braves manager for a second. A few players and coaches were talking to the people in the sections near the field. I was lucky and scored tickets in the 2nd row right behind first base.

That is another thing I am very much looking forward to, I grew up cutting school and buy bleacher seats In Yankee Stadium with my paper route money. Always dreamed of being in a smaller more intimate setting (hear voices maybe) at the Yankee spring training field watching a game or even better spend a couple of hours seeing them practice.
