PNC PARK - Pittsburgh, PA

padres vs pirates - august 11 2001 - inaugural year of a great new park. yellow stone as opposed to red brick gives it a unique look over it's "retro" siblings. excitement for the new park gave way to standing room only tickets. which was okay, because the standing room offered a great view from the outfield. lot's of energy, and the always real possibility of someone hitting one into the allegheny river.
