I may decide to buy tickets to one of the games, but not until close to game day when I can pick a game where the weather looks good and choose the pitcher I want to see.   

It’s a very different ballpark than Camden Yards, not as charming but some people like the fact that it has an open concourse where you can kind of see part of the field while you’re walking around.

I am planning on going. Any others?

Has anyone been there? Any recommendations on seats? 

This is my second post, but I've viewed for a long time. May the series prove fruitful to both teams.

Working in DC, I go to a bunch of Nats games. Metro drops you off. Not sure what your budget is, but I typically buy a ticket in the nosebleeds and watch from their standing room only spots. They have them in left through center field and along the first and third base lines.

They do have Bens Chili Bowl, or at least they did last time I was there.

A friend of mine who has Nats seasons tickets in the 2nd row behind the dugout offered that I could buy his 4 seats and parking pass before he offered them to members of his ticket group.  I went online to see what they cost: $173 each, plus the parking is $47.50 I believe.  So that would be a $740 outlay.  Uh….no.   

Depends on the game, but I believe the equivalent tickets at Camden Yards are typically $95 or so.   

It will be interesting to see what similar tickets are going for on Stubhub as that game approaches.

Metro.

Mind if I asked, but would you spend hours in travel for an Orioles game?

Wednesday, beyond 3B. It will be our first game. How certain are the starters at this point?

I'm hoping my namesake is not needed, but it would be nice to see him in action.

      Mayo coming back from injury could have his debut in Baltimore delayed.

      Wasn't a huge fan of his swing for that last out today but coming in to pinch hit with 2 outs isn't easy.

      Interpreting Malike's comment that way is theoretically possible, but I didn't take it that way--didn't feel that shade was being thrown on me at all. But thanks for the concern.

      People are being a bit ridiculous with the holier than thou takes criticizing a little humor. I am not saying what happened couldn’t cause a significant concussion, but it would be a bit of a fluke if it did. Mullins barely hit him with the bat and he had a helmet on. The fact that it was in the back of the head did make him more vulnerable, but this wasn’t the type of thing you see and think he was lucky to be alive.  Guys have probably hit their heads harder on the top of the dugout or on the fence making catches.  And note this comes from someone whose son has suffered severe concussions and who is well aware of the dangers associated with them. In short, people need to lighten up a bit on guys like Roy.  It was a little gallows humor.

      Yeah, you read that wrong. LA2 is one of my favorite posters here and he knows it. No harm, no foul. If you aren't familiar with the game threads, it doesn't matter what the team is doing, people complain about it and people did make that same joke in the game thread long before Roy said it here. Game thread in summary - when the O's are not doing well, it's insufferable, when they are doing well, it's mildly less insufferable. There, that wasn't hard. I'd appreciate it if you didn't assume I'm throwing shade at people. I'll leave that up to you to do, you're really good at it.

      Draft Targets 2 Months Out

      By OriolesMagic83 · Posted

      Wasn't Westburg a 2nd round draft pick?  It's a little early to judge last year's draft.
