Rockies fans deserve more than what they've received from ownership for 22 seasons of loyal attendance in Denver. Colorado has had some magic baseball moments[1995 and 2007] in the last two decades, but, over the long haul, Rockies pitching has been substandard for MLB competition.

By now, it is well known that the Brothers Monfort and Jerry McMorris, were not the original ownership group that was going to lead the Rockies. The Rockies were going to be owned by a group led by…

Planning to visit 4 new MLB parks, and at least 4 new MiLB parks in June.

6/13- Reds at Braves
6/14 - Mariners at Rays
6/15 - Fort Myers at Lakeland
6/16 - Biloxi at Pensacola
6/17 - Oklahoma City at New Orleans
6/18-19 - Reds at Astros
6/20 - Corpus Christi at San Antonio
6/21-22 - Reds at Rangers
6/23 - Fort Wayne at Bowling Green
6/24-26 - Padres at Reds (Reds Hall of Fame weekend)

I've been to 6 current MLB stadiums, 11 overall. I'm actually more interested in minor league ballparks than Major League. I've been to right around 70 MiLB ballparks.

I grew up in Arlington, TX, and my family had Texas Rangers' season tickets in the late 80's and early 90's. That's where I fell in love with baseball. During the same time period, my dad was living in Huntsville, AL. I'd go to visit him in the summer and he'd take me to Huntsville Stars' games, when they were the A's…

I am new to this site. A friend found it and tipped me off. Wow, I wish I had known about it. I have been to 29 current parks, and 14 closed parks. It has been a life journey, with my first game at old Metropolitan Stadium in Minnesota when I was 5 (47 years ago). I will be going to D.C. in 2016 to complete the dream. Then, with Atlanta opening in 2017, I will be going there to keep the dream alive. This site makes me think about a lot of memories. I need to gather my thoughts and put them…

So,

This year has not been a good year for me when it comes to seeing baseball. I have only been able to make it to five games this year and all to stadiums that I have already been to (Nationals, Padres, Athletics and Mariners), but......

I was able to get a ticket to the playoffs! I will be going to the Dodgers game on Friday against the Mets. This will be my first post-season game EVER, I don't know about you all, but I'm pretty excited about it!!!

Finally got to Marlins Park this month, and liked it a lot. We took a trip down to Miami for an overnight just to get to the park - although stayed in South Beach so did an Art Deco walking tour as well, absolutely worthwhile. I saw what I figured must be Marlins Park from the air as we were coming in for landing, and confirmed in the taxi on the way there that yes, that is what I saw. We thought it was big and flashy, and while it would look awful just about anywhere else, was absolutely…

So I've now been to 13 current MLB parks. I thought I'd try to rank them in this post. I'm not going to include Citi Field because I went in 2010, before I became a true "chaser." So there will be 12. I had a good time at each park and would go back to any of them, I just like some more than others. Bear with me, this is long - I bolded the parks if you just want to quickly see my rankings w/o all the commentary.

12. US Cellular Field (went once, in 2013). Easy to get…

After the 2 games at Wrigley, I figured my next ballpark would be Chase Field in Phoenix, just after the All Star Break. I wanted to find out something about the park first, and that's when I came across Ballpark Chasers. This site has turned out to be an incredible resource!

In 2012, I was at a Tigers game with my dad when he asked me if I was going to try to get to all 30 MLB parks. That's when the idea started to really appeal to me. We had been to a few when I was a kid and I had…

I recently got back from an awesome road trip in which I drove about 7,000 miles total. I visited a lot of friends and family, saw and did some incredible things, and of course, went to a bunch of different ballparks.

Coming into this year, I had seen 8 current MLB parks and no current minor league ones, plus 4 defunct MLB parks and 1 defunct MiLB park. On my trip I saw a total of 11 games in 10 different parks - 8 MLB, 2 MiLB. Of these, 5 of the MLB parks were new to me and both MiLB…

Visited Wrigley (2nd time for me, first for the wife and kids) on Saturday. We sat low in the upper deck, as far right as you can go. Here's my thoughts:

-Sound is not great - could hear all of the players names, but if they played music or other things, I couldn't hear what they were saying.

-New video boards. I have seen the stadium before and after, and I have no problem with them. Since my seats did not have the best sight lines, it was nice to have the boards for a replay of a…

HI Chasers,

The ballpark chasers weekend is 3 weeks from now, so of course we are making moves to ensure a weekend of fun.

We are looking for an experienced grill person to help us out cook some of the delicious hot dogs and hamburgers we will be doling out. We will kick in a free Manfish brewing T-shirt for your help.

So all of us know that the schedule

Friday - nothing planned, but the select few…

I've never been to the Baseball Hall of Fame and was thinking of going. Have any of you been? What did you think? Is induction weekend great or an overpriced madhouse? Is that the time to go or should I go another time? What minor league ballparks nearby did you go to?

Recent injuries at MLB ballparks have renewed discussions of expanded safety netting at the major and minor league level.  Some have suggested netting from dugout to dugout while others have taken it one step further and would like to see netting from foul pole to foul pole.  A class action law suit by an Oakland A's season ticket holder contends that Major League Baseball has been negligent in terms of guaranteeing fan safety and has demanded further safety netting.

Those who…

Flying into Newark Wednesday and hitting Yankee game Wednesday night as well as Met game Thursday night.

Can anyone advise me on the best course of transportation? Taking train in? Is driving to parks a nightmare? Any help would be appreciated.

Here are the games I have scheduled for the rest of the year, I am sure there will be more, but as of now these are the ones I know of for sure. If you plan to be at any of these, and want to say "HEY!", let me know :)

Just back from visiting my 7th ballpark. This past Saturday was treated to near perfect game! Max Scherzer's no hitter was bitter-sweet. Great seeing a no-hitter, but no against my Pirates. Impressed by the ballbark and what appears to be development in the area surrounding the ballpark. Was fairly easy to get to and from the park despite a sellout game. And the home fans and concession attendants were all very friendly to us out of towners! Overall I great day at the park!
