Where do you like to spend a summer afternoon or evening?
For me it is US Cellular Field in Chicago. Few places can compete with a good Sox game. With the Cell being a hitter's park and sluggers like Jose, Maggs, The Big Hurt, Paulie, Crazy Carl, and el Caballo you are guaranteed to see Homers. In over 40 home games they have only failed to hit a round tripper in 2 games.
The Cell is family friendly with good firework shows, a cool video board and a winnng team (something the Northsiders don't have).
With pitchers like Buehrlemon, Garcia, Elo, Garland, and Schoe starting the game will not be out of reach and the sluggers will come through.
The pen will hold (unlike the Flub's pen) and you can see Marte, Politte, and Cotts hold a lead for the closer, Shingo Takatsu, can anyone say "IT'S SHINGO TIME!"
Expect to see sluggers tee off on opposing pitchers. Watch them get pulled and be embarrassed as over 30,000 fans start singing "Na Na, Na Na Na Na, Hey Hey Hey, GOODBYE!"
You can expect to hear alot of "He Gawn"s from announcer Hawk Harrelson when Garcia racks up the K's.
You can also expect to hear "It's Way back, STretch, (place name of outfielder here) look's up, YOU CAN PUT IT ON THE BOOOOAAAARRRRDDD eee YEEESSSS!" from the Hawk.
