I was asked by the organizers of a church group to cover their visit to the above game for the church Website. They could have had any seats in the stadium and this is what I was assigned ---- in full frontal sun and the net line right through the home plate.
I will refer to the concrete area behind the so-called "Field Level" seats as the "deck" where all pictures were taken from unless otherwise noted.

Sorry the pictures have to be so small as they are intended for a web page with frames and a side menu. I just don't have the time to do them all over at say 800 or 1024 wide instead of 583.

When the game started I went down to the front of my aisle to get a good picture of the home plate activity and was quickly hustled away by an official!
