Reflections on the last days of a bad baseball place. 78 pages, with over 50 full color images. Available on Amazon. "Just take the ball and throw it where you want to. Throw strikes. Home plate don't move."– Satchel Paige"No matter how good you are, you're going to lose one-third of your games. No matter how bad you are you're going to win one-third of your games. It's the other third that makes the difference."– Tommy LasordaResearch Library "Now, you tell me, if I have a day off during the baseball season, where do you think I'll spend it? The ballpark. I still love it. Always have, always will."– Harry CarayRandom Image I noticed this detail while taking the previous picture. I figure that it must be the VIP entrance from the surface parking lot.

You feel attached, permanently wedded to the sounds that ring out, to the fans chanting your name, even when there are only four or five thousand in the stands on a Wednesday afternoon."– Branch Rickey"I see great things in baseball. It's our game - the American game. It will take our people out-of-doors, fill them with oxygen, give them a larger physical stoicism. Tend to relieve us from being a nervous, dyspeptic set. Repair these losses, and be a blessing to us."– Walt WhitmanRandom Image Look closely at the overhang.

"Now there's three things you can do in a baseball game: You can win or you can lose or it can rain."– Casey Stengel"You talk about the magic, the aura, but what really makes a stadium is the fans. Concrete doesn't talk back to you. Chairs don't talk back to you. It's the people who are there, day in, day out, that makes the place magic."– Bernie Williams |
