Hottest baseball game you’ve ever been to?

Sunday afternoon game in either Fulton county Stadium or Turner Field.
Seats in the sun were brutal.

Game 1 of last year’s WS in LA. 101° during the day. 97° at first pitch.

An august game in stl on average is about 98 with 70% humidity . Sucks.

Went to a Braves and Reds game at Cinergy in the mid/late 90s when they measured the turf at 152 degrees. Jeff Blauser even claimed that his cleats began to melt. I don't remember who the catcher was for the Reds, but he had to leave the game because of heat exhaustion.

There was a vendor that would make one pass through a section and would sell out of the minute maid frozen lemonades before he made it to the front row. I'm certain my Dad bought 15 of those things that day.

Miserable... Maddux was dealing though.

I once went to a Charleston RiverDogs game at noon in July. I left before the end of the 3rd inning.

Come on now, you only need to go to the Thirsty Thursday mystery beer nights and sit in GA at Riverdogs games.

Or should I say Charleston Boiled Peanuts?

2001 LSU vs Tulane Super Regional at Zephyr field. It was miserable

I was pretty young but remember the old Arlington stadium in summer, 1980.

There were 69 100+ days that summer... including a couple of 113 scorchers.

Those metal bleachers in the outfield.

All the games were during the day, or at least 2 of the 3 were. The Zephyrs had night games already in place, so that's how it went down. No idea why someone didn't make them switch though...it's not like anyone was going to the Zephyr games and those Super games were all VERY sold out.

I was playing in a minor league stadium one time, pitching in July. It was like 130 on the mound. I had to put a cold towel on my neck between batters.
