Why?


The turf looks terrible.

I hate that slightly higher overhead view on the pitcher. Reminds me of watching an NCAA tourney game in a football stadium when all the camera angles fuck up your perspective.

I truly appreciate the inside views, but it looks like a compacted barn.

Oh it’s a horribly ugly exterior. I kind of like the balcony look they have in the outfield inside. But somebody should get fired and/or executed over this thing.

The cameras..idk. I don’t like having to adjust during meaningful games. That high angle fucks with my perspective on low strikes. Everything seems overly zoomed.

*and the upper zone. I thought that pederson K was a decent pitch but the fox tech had that well north of the top of the zone.

As a goofy kid who wanted to be an architect, I agree.

Why?

True, ugly. However, retractable domes usually let in limited amount of the view of the sky and this stadium is a marked improvement on that.

I feel like this stadium is going to go down as a giant "dud" of a stadium, the likes of the latest Yankee stadium or the barn in Arizona.
They 100% needed a roof in Texas, but this thing is not great. If you're gonna go Field Turf (represent), then just make it a hi-tech completely enclosed dome.

Rare good postseason start for Kershaw.

In fact, the only reason they won the NLCS is because dumbass Roberts didnt fall for the trap of bringing him in relief in Game 7 like he has before.

Conventional always wins.

The old stadium has been converted to a soccer facility, and maybe some HS football.

This Dodgers team is just too deep, and the stars are showing up when it matters most.

Problem is that they only have two front line starters.

How many do you need? Pitching will not be their problem.

Every time Arozarena hits a home run, I laugh at the Cardinals. I wouldn't doubt that they traded him because he "wouldn't fit in to The Cardinal Way."

With all of the lead changes, this has turned into a pretty compelling game.
