It's the middle of January and while the NFL Playoffs and the NBA regular season are ongoing, sometimes, the baseball season just can't come fast enough. Last year, I began a countdown of my favorite ballparks and didn't get to the top two. So, while 3/4 of the country is buried in snow, here's the number two park: Petco Park in San Diego, CA. Due to a surplus of pictures, I'll be posting a part 2 with comments on the ballpark and game. All photos were taken by me on April 30th, 2006.
