I was in Portland OR doe a conference this week and had a little free time so I went to see the AAA Portland Beavers take on the Colorado Springs Sky Sox. I sat in my seat for the first inning, then spent the rest of the game walking around and taking pictures.

The ballpark has a tall left field wall similar to Fenway’s Green Monster. This is the view from the seats atop the wall.

They also have a manual scoreboard. This is what it looks like behind the scenes as the operator waits for the next pitch.

The center field wall also has a small balcony that hangs out over the field. It give you an odd view of the lineups as well as a bit of vertigo.

I was lucky enough to get a ticket to the Patriots – Chargers game…

Whenever possible I like to catch a baseball game in any town I travel to, so tonight was my first Giant’s game. I got to AT&T Park early and caught a few shots of the place.

I’ve never been a fan of Barry, so that one hurt a bit to take.

I’ve scene these two on TV a few times.

I have to admit I did find myself hoping Barry would hit one one, just to say I’d seen it, but no luck.

Took the Fenway tour today…
