AT&T Park // 11 of 30 // Where in the World is Mark Darden?

June 21, 2017 by Mark Darden

WHEN THE GLASSES ARE ON, THERE'S SOME TRAVELING GOIN' ON! My next stop in the "Quest For 30" baseball journey is AT&T Park in San Francisco, California. Before the game, I made a stop at the Golden Gate Bridge and took in the amazing views from the bridge. I definitely got my cardio workout that day. AT&T Park is my favorite ballpark that I have visited so far in my "Quest For 30". The views from the stadium are cool, they had a concierge cellphone charging service, and they had the three World Series trophy from the last decade on display in the main concourse. IT'S GAME TIME FOLKS!

Rickey Henderson Field at Oakland Coliseum // 10 of 30 // Where in the World is Mark Darden?

June 14, 2017 by Mark Darden

WHEN THE GLASSES ARE ON, THERE'S SOME TRAVELING GOIN' ON! My next stop in the "Quest For 30" baseball journey is Rickey Henderson Field at Oakland Coliseum in Oakland Coliseum. This was the first game that I bought my ticket at the stadium instead of Stubhub. Oakland Coliseum may be an old stadium, but I actually like it. The stadium has character and it's unique with the bullpens being along the first and third baselines. IT'S GAME TIME FOLKS!

Petco Park // 9 of 30 // Where in the World is Mark Darden?

June 07, 2017 by Mark Darden

WHEN THE GLASSES ARE ON, THERE'S SOME TRAVELING GOIN' ON! Petco Park was the 9th stadium in my "Quest For 30" baseball journey. Originally, I was supposed to see the Padres take on Los Angeles Dodgers on Sunday, May 7th. Unfortunately, the game was postponed until September due to inclement weather. I was a little distraught because I bought the ticket for the game about 5 minutes before I found out it would be postponed. Two days later, I went back to San Diego as the Texas Rangers visited Petco Park. It was Taco Tuesday and Petco Park was a beautiful ballpark. IT'S GAME TIME FOLKS!

Dodger Stadium // 8 of 30 // Where in the World is Mark Darden?

June 06, 2017 by Mark Darden

WHEN THE GLASSES ARE ON, THERE'S SOME TRAVELING GOIN' ON! My 8th stop in the "Quest For 30" baseball journey is Dodger Stadium in Los Angeles, California, home of the Los Angeles Dodgers. I met some awesome people, ate A LOT of funnel cake, saw the Dodgers beat up the Pirates, and I had a "debate" with a Pittsburgh fan. Unfortunately, I had to throw out my IT'S GAME TIME FOLKS sign because it was not allowed into Dodger Stadium. I shed a couple of tears for my sign. IT'S GAME TIME FOLKS!

Angel Stadium of Anaheim // 7 of 30 // Where in the World is Mark Darden?

May 31, 2017 by Mark Darden

WHEN THE GLASSES ARE ON, THERE'S SOME TRAVELING GOIN' ON! The "Quest For 30" baseball journey makes it's next stop at Angel Stadium of Anaheim, home of the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim. After a long day of travel, I made it to the stadium just before the first pitch. It was the Houston Astros versus the Angels in which was a close game until the bottom of the ninth. I sat two rows from the field, ate garlic fries, heard a lot of screaming, happy Girl Scouts, and saw an amazing fireworks display after the game. IT'S GAME TIME FOLKS!
