Hi,

My name's Diane and I love this site. Thanks, Craig! My college roomate (from Atlanta) and I (from Portland, Oregon--originally from the North Side of Chicago) started meeting every summer to go to a game. So far, we've been to Seattle, San Francisco, Wrigley Field, Atlanta, Baltimore, the old Yankee Stadium, Boston, Minneapolis. This summer we're going to Denver and just bought tickets down the first base line for a beautiful view of the Rocky Mountains, according to the Coors…

I recently joined Ballpark Chasers and am really enjoying the content on this site so I thought I'd contribute my background to start off with.

I have lived in Iowa all my life so I've never lived within 2 hours of an MLB stadium. I grew up in Shenandoah (southwest corner of the state) so we were just over 2 hours from Kansas City and that has led to my Royals fandom (yes, I'm still a fan after nearly 30 years of no postseason play). I went to college in and now live in the Des Moines…

Hey everyone!

I am a HS Math Teacher and was recently awarded a grant to spend the month of June traveling to over 12 different stadiums/cities. My plan is to use Megabus as my mode of transportation for most of the trip. I will be traveling to Detroit, Chicago, Cleveland, Pittsburgh, Cincinnati, Washington DC, Philadelphia, Baltimore, New York (NYY), Boston, Cooperstown, New York (NYM).

My love of baseball drives this project. Many students have never become familiar with this…

My quest to see every MLB team is getting more difficult now that most of the remaining teams are on the other side of the country which requires long-distance travel over either an extended period of time (which isn't very realistic given work demands) or multiple trips over several years (which will be expensive). Although the idea of a road trip sounds great, I think the reality will be the multiple trip scenario.

It might be splitting hairs, but with all the construction of new…

I love the MLB Network, but there's a huge opportunity for Original Programming. I sent them a proposal for MLB Summer Break -- http://www.blockingtheplate.com/apps/blog/show/22029986-mlb-summer-break- -- What do you think? What other programming ideas do you have? If you like MLB Summer Break and are on Twitter, please tweet @MLBNetwork and @MLB directly! (I'm trying to build some momentum!)

Not…
