"People ask me what I do in winter when there's no baseball. I'll tell you what I do. I stare out the window and wait for spring."– Rogers HornsbyExplore the Site This site currently contains Random Image  Finally, a night game image -- complete with fireworks! (OK, it's either a construction photo which has been Photoshopped, or some lucky photographer spent the Fourth of July in the upper deck watching the fireworks over the river. Cool either way.)

"Just take the ball and throw it where you want to. Throw strikes. Home plate don't move."– Satchel PaigeRandom Image  "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 LasordaRandom Image  The view from the upper concourse.

"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  This gate opens onto Seventh Street from the circulation ramps, but it appears to actually be an entrance gate, rather than an exit gate. It has something of a Bat Cave feel about it because it's not a gate proper, but an area of louvers that will swing in, virtually disappearing when closed...
"All the ballparks and the big crowds have a certain mystique. 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 RickeyRandom Image  "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  Citi Field as viewed from Shea.
"Now there's three things you can do in a baseball game: You can win or you can lose or it can rain."– Casey StengelRandom Image  "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 WilliamsRandom Image  |
