WNST -- "Nestor visits Comiskey Park in Chicago"

A recent day off in Chicago found Nestor Aparicio at Comiskey Park. From the "el" ride to the upper deck, from homeplate to right field, all is pursuit of Jim Thome's 500th HR ball...

went to an O's game in Chicago last year. I wasnt too impressed with the stadium. The fans are great tho, very respectful.

You even look like Luis Aparicio, who was a god to me.

Wrigley Field's sightlines are terrible. I haven't been to Comiskey, but it looks great.

I as a White Sox fan am glad that someone came to the park and said good things about it. Considering all the crap we Sox fans took about our ballpark over the years, I'm glad people from outside the Chicago area are coming here and seeing just how good U.S. Cellular Field is. It may not get the "classic" and "nostalgic" worship that dump 9 miles north gets (that's Wrigley Field for those of you not in the know), but "the Cell" as we call it is a great place to watch baseball.

You know those pictures on the murals in the UD concourse are repeated several times around the park - they aren't all obscured by vendor stands.

corn/elotes are the shit. No mention of the beautiful onion smell?? Best stadium food in the city, no doubt

Even with the worst record we've still had great crowds, we just work during the day midweek when the Sox were eliminated months ago

But we will be back!

Glad you like the park, the atmosphere is great when there's meaningful baseball. The poles aren't that bad, they only affect a few seats in the very last rows, but I've sat there and been fine
