Currently sitting in trustmark park in Jackson Miss. Was here for work and decided to stay the night to watch the Braves play. Thirsty Thursday $2 beer tonight.

What minor league parks have you been to and how were they?

Went to a Toledo Mud Hens game a few years ago, the Tigers AAA team. Really cool park and watched outside for free.

You win that argument.

I am still not complaining though.

I've been to Trustmark (great park), and the old and new Traveler's parks in Little Rock.

Been to a Memphis Redbirds (Cardinals AAA) game, great park. Even have an apartment in the outfield that same people sit on their balcony's and watch the games.

Attended a Savannah Sand Gnats (Mets A) game last season. Old park, had a look from a league of their own. What you would expect from a single A club, but 22 bucks had us both sitting front row behind home plate.

There is a huge chasm between even triple A and MLB. Your support is appreciated in minor league parks. MLB would rather have empty seats than make it reasonable for fans.

Dell Diamond (Round Rock Express)
Constellation Field (Sugar Land Skeeters)
Wolff Stadium (San Antonio Missions)
Southwest University Park (El Paso Chihuahuas)
Whataburger Field (Corpus Christi Hooks)


The best of them was easily Round Rock. I'd recommend anyone who's a baseball fan in the area take in a game there. Sugar Land isn't bad but true to their name, the mosquitoes are awful at night and it's not a comfortable game to sit through.

There is a decent shot that they're going to move to Columbia soon because of that old stadium that Savannah won't help replace.
