Baseball Adventure - 2009 - Leg #1


So .. I love baseball. Always have. And it's been a dream of mine to hit as many stadiums as I could. I even thought about taking a summer off (if it was possible) to road trip across the country.

Well, I've decided to try and do that this year. I won't get them all, but I will try and maybe this wil lbe a several year adventure.

I already have Camden Yards (Baltimore) and Chase Field (Phoenix) and of course Miller Park (Milwaukee), so let's see how many more I can hit.

My adventure started on Opening Day here in Milwaukee where my Brewers defeated the Cubs 4-3 in an exciting 9th inning comeback game.

My first leg involves me taking the train from Milwaukee to Pittsburgh where I will see a game Monday night at PNC park.

Next day the train to DC where I will catch a Nationals game at Nationals Park.

The next day I take a day trip up to Philadelphia to see my Brewers play the World Series champs in Citizens Bank Park (and bonus .. I get to tour around downtown Philly and see Independence Hall!)

Throughout the next year or two I'll try and hit as many more as I can. There are quite a few just in short driving distance from Milwaukee.
