Baseball is a summer sport. It shouldn't be played in weather that is Africa hot. Ladies and Gentlemen, it was nearly Africa hot the other night on my first visit to Chase Field. \n\nOk, I might be exaggerating. It was close to 95 degrees outside. As we walked up to the park, I was a little worried about spending the next few hours in the evening heat. I was told this park had a roof and air conditioning system, but this was an open roof game, so I thought I would have to suffer in the heat.\n\nAs soon as we walked into the park, I was pleasantly surprised to find out that the air conditioning was blasting, and it was a balmy 75ish degrees. THANK YOU CHASE FIELD.\n\nWe had a chance to walk around the park a little bit. The food options seemed interesting. A gluten-free stand. Panda Express (eww), a sushi stand BY Panda Express (double eww). \n\nCrackerJacks and a liter of water cost us nearly $10. Such is life at the ballpark I suppose.\n\nI've been to many ballparks: Fenway, Safeco, Jacobs, Angel Stadium, Dodger Stadium, Petco. Some of these parks are old, some are new. This one has it's own unique charm. Yes, it's newer, but it's nice.
