Many years ago I used to sit in the RF grandstands by choice.
I would pay $1.00 to enter the bleachers. Then after the 3rd inning, the gate would open and if you paid another $.75 you could pass into the grandstand and sit anywhere in the park that was unoccupied.
The grandstands were generally not further that the bleachers from the action ( depending on how low you sat ) and most of them kept you out of the Sun and rain.
As long as you were not stuck behind a pole the views were for the most part unobstructed.
I loved it out there.

"It's also a simple and indisputable fact that WAR isn't the be-all end-all in valuations, especially in real life. Wanna know why? Because an ace in run-prevention for 120 innings means more often than not, a sub-standard pitcher covering for the rest of the IP that pitcher fails to provide. You can't see value in a vacuum when a player does not provide full-time production."
anyone in the Mets area...McDonalds has BOGO ticket offers for citifield....
i know they suck but: Baseball.

I tried getting tix for one of the games here in atlanta this week. Unreal. Cheapest ones still available were $101 per seat. And they weren't great seats. And Sun Trust Field ain't no Fenway!
Any Cleveland area Sox fans here? I’ve got tickets for the Friday and Sunday game, just one seat; my daughter was going to join my wife and I for this trip (we live in Rochester, NY) but it looks like she won’t make it due to some late commitments. There’s still a slight chance she might make the Friday game, but Sunday is definitely out. Friday night tickets are upper left field bleacher seats, Sunday is much better, first baseline. I paid $50/seat for the Friday tickets when I bought them earlier in the year, $150/seat for the Sunday tickets. Will let them go for 1/2 price. If interested, please email me: ohgunrunner@yahoo.com.
Go Sawx!

Since I’m convinced my Sox will make the WS, I’m planning to go LOL!
Said that, does anybody know how to get tickets to WS? Will they sell them at the RS page just like in regular season or is there a different procedure to get them?
Where do I get one of those WS grey hoodies/sweatshirts the Sox were wearing?
Fanatics.com or any place that sells World Series gear.

I placed an order like 2 months ago at mlbshop.com and it hasn't arrived yet. Their service is terrible. One day you speak with someone and tell you one thing and another they say you a completely different thing. Yes, the official web place of the MLB to buy things on internet.
One day, they told me that my order was already shipped. After a while, since my order didn't arrive, I called them back again to track it, and they told me that they don't send to Mexico, and I said, WTF? (they told me that it was already shipped) and they told that my money was going to be refunded, and I said, it sucks but it's oks. A week after that, I noticed that my money wasn't refunded yet, so I called them back again, and they told me that it was going to arrive on December 20th which hasn't happened, of course, once again, I said wtf? (They told me that they don't send to Mexico) but I didn't have a choice but to wait. After that, I called them back again, and they told me that my shipment was going to arrive soon, so I asked for the tracking number and carrier, but they told me that they don't have/share that information, once again I said WTF? It must be joke! so I told them, you send a lot of things and don't have a way to track them? really? who the fuck runs this place? Today, they haven't refunded my money and my shipment hasn't arrived. It is literally in the limbo. Nobody there knows a goddamn thing about my order.
Becareful, I just noticed that Mlbshop.com runs with the same platform of fanatics.com
It's unbelievable that the official web page of the MLB that sell things works this way. A complete joke in my experience.
I've had good luck with both Fanatics and MLBshop but I'm in the US.
I understand your frustration though. I ordered a Mookie Betts game-type shirt for my granddaughter (gotta raise 'em right!) from an outfit called "fanzoutlet.com" through a website located in Chicago on December 13. On the 14th they sent me confirmation that it was shipped and a tracking number - which doesn't work. I should have been apprehensive when the tracking number was for Canadian parcel post. Canada Parcel say it's not in their system.
NOW I find out fanzoutlet is a Chinese organization and other people have had trouble with them too. Looks like I'm out $49 (ok, I got lured in by the low price ) because Visa won't investigate any charge less than $50.
The moral: Don't buy anything from fanzoutlet.com. Learn from my mistake.

Hi all,
Just looking for a little info. Coming over from the UK the 8th - 12th June for my 10 yr wedding anniversary. I am hoping to catch one of the Rangers games on the 10th/11th. However it looks like the tickets are not released yet. When do these games normally go on sale as the early months up to May and September games seem to have been released. Or have I missed the sale?
Staying just down the way from Fenway so I am very much looking forward to visiting.
Thanks for any help in advance!
