Never been to the Giants new ball park (PacBell, AT& T or is it ORACLE now?). I LOVED Candlestick for both baseball and football, especially before they enclosed it and cut off the view of the bay. Hey, it's San Francisco, it's cold there every day.I’ve been to their “new” stadium. One summer night I thought that shorts would be fine. The last time I was there it was for a concert. It
I’ve been to Candlestick for preseason football and baseball. It’s a miserably windy place. The Giants gave away the Croix de Candlestick to anyone who stayed until the conclusion of an extra inning night game.
My dad got tickets for a day baseball game there. Right behind home plate about 20 rows back. It was a sunny day and I wore shorts. But we left as soon as the shade started, because direct sun was the only thing that kept us warm enough with the swirling winds. I did get some suite tickets from my company. They leased the suite for the entire year, mostly for entertaining customers at football games. The baseball season was mostly distributed to employees. It was OK with the windows closed, but still miserable from the parking lot until we got inside and closed the door.
I did extend it for an hour as my standard recording setting for all baseball games. My recording is 4 hours. Game time was 7:15 and the box score says 3:46.Rookie mistake. I always extend my recording by an hour, then record the next show, just in case.

OK. Maybe not before I was born, but I don't remember anything about that time. I've seen the pictures.1971.
Ouch.The "seek-wit weapon" the Marlins have is that they are very accustomed to playing in empty ballparks.
"Re-wees de seek-wit weapon!"
The Miami Marlins' home opener against the Baltimore Orioles on Monday night has been canceled, sources told ESPN's Jeff Passan, as coronavirus cases continue to pop up among the team.
Eight more players and two coaches with the Marlins have tested positive for coronavirus, as an outbreak has spread throughout their clubhouse and brought the total of cases in recent days to at least 14, sources familiar with the situation told ESPN.
The Marlins remain in Philadelphia and continue to undergo testing after their weekend series there.
