In the third photo, the batter's eye looks like it is going to be huge.

Really pisses me off the new RF bleachers will have chairbacks and they aren't doing anything in LF.

They gave me the option to upgrade to the right field bleachers and I gladly did.

ETA: I got seats on the front row to make it easier to get in and out.

I had the same choice but chose not to because I didn't want the sun directly in my eyes for every afternoon game. It is still crap though.

how are they going to work around the light pole to add another set of bleachers?

Wait you left out crucial information. What did your buddy ride by in and will it be ready?

The only problem with the front row is that people will constantly be walking in front of you to get to concessions/bathrooms. As you can see in the photos, the first row is not elevated above the walkway like the grandstands and left/right field bleachers.

I guess that is how they are able to sell those sun-in-the-eye seats more easily. It helps differentiate the pricing structure of the whole stadium. Although, my guess would be that they will eventually upgrade those left field seats to bench backs. But not without having to replace the whole structure because of leg room issues.

Actually, they will be set up exactly like the home run bleachers in left field with a handicap row in the front. This allows for you to be high enough to see perfectly fine over the people walking. At least that's what the guy at the ticket office said.

I sit on the first row in left field and you definitely can't see over people walking in front of you, but it isn't that bad because the marshalls don't let them just stand and linger.

Same exact bleachers from the old field. We still had rope and beads tied to the top rail where we left it.

Hopefully during postseason they'll stick the students there instead of the terrible LF bleachers. That was a horrible experience.
