Starting opening day of 2012 in Seattle, the Biking for Baseball team started a journey across America. Our 4-member team is cycling to each and every Major League Ballpark during the 2012 season attending at least one game (and hopefully 2!) to root on the home team.
But that's only the beginning. At each major city stop along the way, we host …

Hello all, was in Arizona this past week and saw a game at Chase field. My 27th MLB stadium, only 3 to go. I caught my first ever foul ball. It was very exciting. The park was nice and also the Arizona scenery was great.
I'm going to San Franciso and Oakland August 1 and 2... after that, will only have to see Miami.
Will keep you…

Was talking to my boss yesterday and he now says that he would prefer to send me to work in New Mexico in December instead of August. This would completely screw me for my SeeAll30 Summer. After getting pissy about this for a while, my wife tells me, "You should still go". I asked her, "What?" "You need to complete this, you are so close. Just go", she says. ARE YOU FREAKING KIDDING ME?! Man I love this woman! After trying to work out the schedule to go sooner (so I would have more…

I recently stayed aat the Drury Inns and Suites at Kauffman Stadium. Safe, fifteen minute walk to the turnstiles. The rate was very reasonable ($85.00, total) and included a decent, hot breakfast, plus an inclusive evening event with basic bar food stuff, plus beer, wine, and some basic liquor. The facility was just renovated and the staff was very friendly and hospitable. Great deal!

It was about a year ago when I found ballparkchasers.com. I was sitting in Afghanistan and I had decided that I wanted to not just talk about a dream but be able to come home to the United States and fullfill one. I did a simple google search and found this community. It has simply been the most important connection of my entire trip. Tonight was the most fullfilling experience I've had thus far.
I attended a game at Safeco Field in Seattle. Through this website I met…

Ok, it's been a long time. Last year I completed my visits to all 30 current parks. And then what happens, a new park opens in Miami. Well, will be visiting Marlins Park on May 25. So barring any new digs, (Come on Tampa you are due) I will have completed my list

So here I am pushing 70, and I finally found something my teen-aged son actually wants to do with me--chase ball parks. We did our two local parks (SF Bay Area) when he was younger, then started doing trips. 2010 was San Diego-Anaheim-LA, then 2011 was SF to Chicago White Sox to Dallas to St. Louis to Philadelphia to Washington to Atlanta to Tampa Bay to Miami back to SF, 8 parks in 12 days. This year we're just now buying tickets, but it looks like SF to Denver to Milwaukee to Baltimore to…

I've been thinking about chasing ballparks around the world lately. My reasoning behind this is we'll be moving out of the country in Summer 2013 and I still want to see baseball at least somewhere. So my question is this, "does seeing baseball stadiums outside of North America count towards the total?"
Your thoughts?

Hello Chasers,
As baseball fans all across the country, I wanted to share with you a personal project I'm working on this season, aside from hitting a few ballparks of course.
I call it the "Great Baseball Race" and with it, I track the ups and downs of the divisional races as a simple line graph. You can see the hot and cold streaks through the weeks and how far back 5.5 games really is.
I update it every Monday and would love for yall to check it out…

Check out today's Wall Street Journal front page piece on DC Nationals restricting ticket sales to DC, Md and Va zips only. Team COO wants an all National fanbase in the ballpark. The funny thing is, the crowd is typically all decked out in red, so you can't tell if its Natl or Philly fans. And the Nats' CFO can't distinguish Nats vs Philly greenbacks in the coffers. Oh! And by the way, Philly Sports Fans are probably the best travelling fan base in the country. Too many work arounds for…

I am very happy to announce that we have published our 4th Stadium Journey Magazine. I thought this one would be of special interest to Chasers as we focus on ballparks of MLB. I hope you'll check it out...

Hey everybody, just joined this site today after following on facebook for a long time. I think it's great that we have this forum to share. I did the 30 ballpark road trip in 2007 and have kept up with all of the new parks since then, I'll be getting to Miami in June. I've also been to a bunch of minor league, independent, college summer, NCAA parks and my next park will be my 100th! My absolute favorite league in the world is the Northwoods League, and if anybody out there has not yet…

My brother Nick passed away suddenly last March. He wanted to visit all 30 ballparks (among other things), so I'm taking up the mantle for him.
Nick should have turned 30 April 19. To kick off my own attempt (I'm starting "clean" and not counting any previous games), I organized a birthday party for Nick for family & friends back home at PNC Park yesterday, April 22. We sold 116 tickets! And we decided to use the event to raise awareness of the importance of blood…

1. Breaking the Bank on Airline Tickets. This is very easy to do while gas prices are so high. The best thing to do is to shop around, take your time, and look for the best bargains. The more informed you are about the cost of traveling the better…
