Love the view. Tons better then windy Candlestick. Clunky right field wall gives it lots of character. Love the garlic fries! Love the rare HR into McCovey Cove. Free RF views through the arches to passerby. I love to take the ferry from Oakland's Jack London Square and walk into the stadium.

I thought that there was a rule in baseball that the right and left field foul lines had to be at least a certain distance and no less. Although I don't remember the distance, I believe that the 309' down the right field line at AT&T Park is well below that limit. If this is correct, then I wonder how the Giants got approval to build the park with a dimension below league standards? Please note that Charley Finley tried to reduce the distance of the right field line at Municipal Stadium in Kansas City year's ago, but the league wouldn't let him. He then constructed what he called "The Penant Porch," in which the right field foul line ran 330'to comply with league rules, but then quickly veered toward home plate where it was only 297' from home plate, but again, the league made him take down the porch, so, again, I was wondering how the Giants got away with this, but Charley Finley couldn't? Any help on answering this question would be greatly appreciated. Jack

This ballpark has to be seen to be believed. It's been a treat for me each and every time I've attended a ballgame (and a soccer game - U.S. vs. Japan) here. Come early to visit the Willie McCovey statue and little league park on the south side of China Basin (McCovey Cove) and Lefty O'Doul Bridge and to walk the promenade that takes you all the way 'round the park. The fans here are the most passionate I've experienced and the park is easy to reach via ferry from the East Bay or public transit from the city. (Don't drive, as parking is upwards of $20 per vehicle.)
