I have not been up there for a couple years, and don’t know when I’ll ever make it back, but I hope to. My arthritis isn’t helping, for sure. Even though you see more of the game on TV, there’s something magical about attending a game in person there. We used to drive up to the Rapid Transit station off Green Rd.and take a train to Terminal Tower in downtown Cleveland, get off there, and walk through the sky bridge and across the street to get to a game. I enjoyed that. My middle son saw a game last year in the brand new Texas Rangers park, and he said it doesn’t hold a candle to Cleveland’s ballpark.

I totally agree about the loud noise blasting from the PA during inning change. Maybe the younger folks like it. I can do without it.

José is much beloved in Cleveland! As is obvious. The crowd chanting his name happens a lot.

Now we just need Texas and Seattle to lose a few games!
