This was the 3rd game of our 4 game trip in 2011. The trip to The Cell was great. The weather was beautiful and it was a good game. The Yanks won 10-5. Shawn was a bit paranoid about the reputation the park has, especially going in his Yankee gear, but it was smooth and everyone seemed very friendly.
Chris took pics of the bricks with all the Sox logos, so I made a collage of it. pretty cool.
The scoreboard here is pretty cool, it surrounds the whole back of the park, which makes sense in this part of town, because there is no skyline. It is mostly set up digitally now with the exception of one board in LC field. It is nice, but I have seen alot more impressive out there.
One screwed up thing about this park is that if you buy upper deck seats, you cannot leave the upper deck. We like to walk around the parks and see the different views and with that crazy rule, you cannot do that. We got lower level seats and they were great. There doesn't seem to be a bad seat in the park.
Here is another statue of liberty from the 08 All-Star game. I have seen these at alot of parks now.
Here is a collage of the statues from U.S. Cellular. They are from the top left clockwise, Walter Pierce, Minnie Minoso, Harold Baines, Nellie Fox, Luis Aparicio, Frank Thomas, and last but not least, the one who I think was the greatest Sox player ever, Carlton Fisk.
