Drinking game: drink every time he mentions the seating/upper deck of the stadium The centerfield wall at Comerica isn't staying that way.

What they did in Detroit in center field in 2023 in center field is really similar to what they did in left to center field in 2003, just not as far in this year as back then (25 feet closer in left center field and 10 feet closer in center field). This is really similar to the original Yankee Stadium when they brought the fence in left center field in 1985 and in a few more feet in 1988, where you have an inner fence that looks tacky from above. Another thing about Comerica Park, when they moved the fence in across left field in 2003, it took another two years before the bullpens were moved into the empty wasted space from right field, thereby freing up that area for a couple of large sections of seats next to the right field access tunnel. Worst feature in about fifteen major league parks also, far too many commercials between innings and no live organ music, which needs to return everywhere and eliminate all of the commercials for those of us who pay quite a sum of money for the live game experience. The commercials are unnecessary because there is more than enough advertising in all MLB parks ever since it made a major comeback in 1992.
@ryandouglas8382 Жыл бұрын
They get paid big money by the companies that are advertising their products with commercials. So I wouldn't count on them throwing away that opportunity for us true baseball fans that like the in game experience/having an organ play but I agree with you. Been a Tiger fan since Old Tiger Stadium and I absolutely despise the new center field wall. Looks super cheap. Idgaf what they thought about how deep it was to Center because what makes a ballpark feel "deep" is the gaps anyway. To me, they should knock that peice of cardboard they're calling a Centerfield fence down and keep the old one unless they plan on replicating it with the vines, and everything on the old wall, which I don't think is possible. Truth is, the reason they moved it in is because they can't land free agent hitters on short contracts with fences so deep. Same as the reason they had them so deep to begin with was to get FA pitchers to sign there which didn't work anyway. To get talent in Detroit it has to be through the draft or trades because no matter how much you tinker with the Stadium there are more desired destinations for free agents to go. I really miss the old center field wall and the right center field scoreboard wall too. At least throw some extra seats in that big ass gap between the center field fences. And wtf is with all the orange little Ceasars colors ugh. BRING BACK COMERICA PARK!

Since Citi Field has open concourses, the stairs are visible, which would be concealed behind tunnels in most stadiums. When you enter the upper deck from the concourse, you go down for the 400 level and up for the 500 level. The outfield seating is asymmetrical with there being more seats in left field than right field, because of how they placed two large standing room areas in right and center field. One of them is on the 100 level and the other is on the 300 level. I agree that it feels like it should have more seats than it actually does, because it feels cavernous inside.

Wall of seats means that the seating sections run vertically and horizontally without the section having the same rows of seats or too many seats within that section, making the seating configurations and sections unbalance. For instance, the 2nd or 3rd upper decks having way more seats and sections than the lower bowls or sections extending to the roof or for no reasons, when you don't need all them seats! The old cookie cutter stadiums were 100% guilty of this flaw and many of the new stadiums have that same exact problem. You don't need new stadiums designed in that way and newer stadiums don't need to have more than 40,000 seats, in general, because most MLB teams will not consistenly have over 40,000 at their home games, through out the season. 45,000 seats would be the max for today's ball parks. So, you don't need massive upper decks around the stadiums, anymore!

Dodger fan here... I agree the batter's eye is nothing special, but it used to be worse, until it got an upgrade. It used to just be black tarps, some which were sagging and dirty, and the camera building was on one side with a black speaker in the middle so it looked sloppy and asymmetrical. Now they've made it look cleaner and symmetrical. The worst feature for me though is outside the stadium -- the massive parking lot. It's outdated and was built during a time when everyone assumed cars, not better mass transit, was the thing of the future. It can take an hour to leave after the game due to the congestion, and the vast black and grey asphalt makes what used to be natural hilltop of trees and shrubs look ugly. They're supposedly working on developing the area around the stadium of shops and cafes which will shrink the parking lot, and supposedly bring a rail line that gets off at or near the stadium. I think they should shrink the parking lot coverage even more by adding a few multi-level parking structures. Then remove the parking lot asphalt and place parks there.

One of the worst features of The Dome (Rogers Centre) is the fact that all the seating faces straight forward. The seats are not angled towards Home Plate like they are in baseball only venues. Having said that, the renovations are phenomenal and now make the park better than at least 5 other parks in the league

Well...some baseball venues. A bunch of seats at Fenway face...right field.

@@Johnny96ri lol..Yeah. The Fenway quirks I feel like the park's age has a lot to do with that. I'm surprised they havent fixed that yet.

@@Johnny96ri That's correct. The club house is underneith. I'm not an engineer but it seems like it would be a lot more work then simply turning each seat 35-45°. So, you're probably right

Bush Studium St. Louis. Budweiser terrace in right field has the cheapest beer in the ballpark.

Agree with you 100 percent about Comerica Park. Looks cheap. They did same crap when they moved in the left field walls.

5:53 the reason the 500 level in Right Field/the 1st base side goes so high is because the track for the southernmost portion of the roof to swivel actually goes along the left field side. Having sat on both sides of the nosebleeds though I would say the 540 section is better than the opposite side, even if it is smaller, as you would have the sun more behind you with the roof open.

I love the Budweiser Pavilion in right field at Busch, but that's because I have a Ballpark Pass, which gets me a SRO ticket for every game, and that's a great place to find a seat to watch the game.

I sat in the upper deck at Rogers Centre at a game last year and god those seats were awful. So old and cramped. Not even a cup holder. Otherwise, the game was great, the stadium has a great atmosphere, the Blue Jays won, and I had a great time. I would love to hopefully go to a game at the newly renovated Rogers Centre next time I make it up to Canada.

Question for people who go to Tigers games. Didn't the architects / engineers who designed Comerica realize the outfield wall distances were going to be too far away from home plate, or did Tigers' management at the time want to make it a very pitcher-friendly park....?
@mrg8581 Жыл бұрын
Tiger Stadium was 440 in center and the flagpole was in play. I think they wanted to copy that somewhat at Comerica originally.
