Although sizzling, we loved that ballpark and likewise toured Dealey Plaza of 11\/22\/63 JFK infamy…
Final week, I obtained again from one other Lone Star State journey\u2014this time Area Metropolis (HOU)!

Earlier than any \u2018Stros followers come at me, I\u2019ll say this: your ballpark is a superbly nice place to look at a sport. Nothing abjectly improper with it in any vogue. The prepare is legitimately cool!
I do, nevertheless, should be sincere in saying I’m now\u2014after years of Goal Area and visits to different spectacular outside venues\u2014a fan of baseball beneath an open sky. This isn\u2019t the Astros\u2019 fault in any way. Even when the retractable roof is closed <\/em>the place remains to be a bit heat\u2014simply an excessive amount of humidity seeping in.

My subsequent journey? Late July in Denver for Twins\/Rockies. Let\u2019s hope the Twins have a win by then.
Right here\u2019s at this time\u2019s mound matchup, and you may click on right here for the lineups (I could also be in-and-out a bit this morning and never capable of drop these in):
