Best ballpark skyline view?

[sequoias]

A dose of Safeco Field skyline/ball park views. Photo taken by other people, as an example.

absolutely love the way that both Seattle and Houston made their domes so inobtrusive that you're not only outdoors......you really feel you are outdoors.

This is the Fifth Third Field in Toledo, Ohio where the Mud Hens play which is a AAA Baseball Minor Team affiliated with the MLB Detroit Tigers:

The topic is best skyline view from the ballpark, not best skyline including the ballpark. If you can't see all of those buildings while seated in the park, then the park does not have a great view.

You can see most of them. CincoRanch just posted a picture.

Well you know the Braves might accidentally break a window or two with all those homeruns.

The only outfield/skyline view you're going to get at SBC (formerly Pacific Bell) Park is the Oakland skyline across the bay, at best on a clear day. PNC Park clearly has the best skyline backdrop for watching a ballgame. On the other hand, San Francisco's is the best-looking skyline behind the stands of any given ballpark in America! I wish I had that classic photo of SBC park as taken from high above McCovey cove with the downtown skyline in the background.

This is the shot I was referring to on the preceeding post.

Turner Field is actually not that far from downtown. Nowhere near as far as Citizens Bank Park is from DT Philly. Probably only 1/4 to 1/2 of a mile. From the upper deck the view is really nice. Here's a more recent image without the old stadium blocking the view:

you can't see it from the seats, but from the upper deck patio you get a great view of denver at coors field.

Pittsburgh has a knockout view - number one IMO. Some of the other ones have great views, too.

[ROCguy]

I'm going to have to vote Pittsburgh, with Chicago at a close second if that picture really is taken from the park.

[weill]

nice pictures altogether!!

[ltsmotorsport]

The view from Sacramento's Raley Field is pretty nice.



But as far as major league parks go, I'd have to say Pittsburgh.

Let's see some pic's of the Jake!
