 AT&T Park, San Francisco by karenincalifornia
Rather than buying a ticket, some people prefer to sail their boat McCovey Cove, in the foreground of this picture and watch the game on TV on their boat. Why? Because this is the most likely place Barry Bonds, a lefty, will hit a homerun. This Cove is just beyond right outfield. Leave a Comment

 SBC Park by spgood301

This is my fourth favorite ball park I've been to so far. I really enjoy going to see a game here and have on at least a couple occations. Being so easy to get to and with a dock for ferry service connected it is a perfect location. I plan to be out again for the Yankees Giants series June 22-24 next year.

 The view from the upper deck
in right by Karnubawax
To get tickets - call first, to see if any are available through conventional channels. Your concierge can help, rich guy! Also, drop hints to whomever you meet that you want to go; everyone you meet in the city will know someone who knows someone who has tickets! Craig's List has an abundance of tickets. And, lastly, there are always the scalpers, who hang out around the parking lots and on the side streets leading to the park.
Cooler restrictions are in place, as usual - I think they have to be softshell and no bigger than 16x12x8. What to bring? MONEY! The food at the park is excellent - especially the garlic fries! Bring a glove - if you remembered to pack it. Souveniers are plentiful and varied.
A few more tips -
Take Public Transportation! Parking is limited and getting to the lots is slow. Take the N Mission Bay train, which goes right to the ballpark from all downtown stations.
The Willie Mays staute is a great landmark in the plaza to meet up at, but EVERYONE meets at the Willie Mays statue. It'll be less crowded if you meet at the promenade on the water behind right field. Speaking of which - you can get a glimpse of the game FOR FREE by looking through the right field fence on the promenade. They don't let you stay long - a couple of innings at the most - but it's a fun thing to do.

The local baseball team (San Francisco Giants) have called this home since March 31, 2000. SBC Park (formerly Pac Bell Park) is a beautiful park situated on 13 acres. Baseball season runs from March-October, and tickets are available from $10.00-$75.00 each. Parking is limited, so use public transportation when possible.
Fun Facts:
Capacity: 40,800
Video Replay Screen: 32 x 24 feet
Distance of right center field alley: 420 feet
Come out and enjoy a day of fun!
Dress in layers! You can never be sure what the weather will be doing. The park is located right on the bay, and it can get extremely windy. Leave a Comment Theme: OtherPhone: (415) 468-3700Directions: Between Kind, 2nd, 3rd, and China Basin.Website: www.sfgiants.com

 SBC Park by ymike2000
You can also feel good about spending your money here, because the stadium was built entirely with PRIVATE funds, meaning the team didn't force the city to build it for them with the taxpayers' money. Giants owner Peter Magowan personally secured financing for the park, which was completed in 2000.
Tickets are $6-65, sightly higher on weekends.
Some people bring their baseball gloves, especially if they are sitting in an area that might get a ball batted into it.
Don't forget your sunscreen. And like everywhere in San Francisco, it may get chilly so bring a jacket. Leave a Comment Theme: OtherPhone: 415.972.2000Directions: http://sanfrancisco.giants.mlb.com/NASApp/mlb/sf/ballpark/sf_ballpark_directions.jspWebsite: http://sanfrancisco.giants.mlb.com
