Have loved working at beautiful PNC Park with @pirates.com. So many fun new additions to the Riverwalk, main concourse and club level. Of course that is because there are so many fantastic views and good baseball stories to tell. Special thanks to all the artists who worked with us on this.

Fun with color: What a fantastic palette chosen back in 1962 for Dodger Stadium. Perfect for Southern California. Third oldest park in Major League Baseball and going strong, over 4 million fans in back to back seasons!

Nothing says post season baseball like a 26 ounce burger for breakfast with Steve Brener. Los Angeles Dodgers will host the post season for the 30th time in the 65 year lifespan of Dodger Stadium, including last 14 years in a row

Stan Kasten’s Dodgers have been in the postseason every year since 2013. They tied a major league record by making 14 postseasons in a row. That record was set by Stan Kasten’s Braves. www.truebluela.com/los-angeles-...

Dodgers are in the postseason for the 14th year in a row, tying the Braves MLB record from 1991-2005. Stan Kasten was president of both teams, and compared them.

For Roberto Clemente Day-a profound honor to have my art on display at PNC Park in Pittsburgh, also an honor as it was commissioned by the great @janetmariesmith.bsky.social The very first MLB game I can recall attending was Clemente Day at Shea Stadium in 1971 🇵🇷

“So here’s the message to Orioles fans this weekend. Buy a ticket. Buy four…The lower bowl at Camden Yards on a Friday night in a pennant race is one of the best things this city has ever built, and it only works when it is full of home fans.” Baltimore Sun www.baltimoresun.com/2026/09/02/o...

How gratifying to see traditions planned for Eutaw Street still alive after 34 years: Oriole Hall of Fame plaques, bronze baseballs on Eutaw Street, flags in descending order of team standings. Eutaw Street would not have been without the B&O Warehouse. x.com/mikeburkemdt...

Always enjoy a visit with Sam Horn - at Dodger Stadium rather than Fenway Park for a change. Sam scored the first run at Camden Yards April 6, 1992. Yep, we go way back!

57 years after Boston City Hall and the plaza opened and still not fully baked. Here is a walk with photographer Stan Grossfeld and his artful eye. Too bad such an inelegant corner for the great Bill Russell tribute.

Nothing says Philly like William Penn atop City Hall. For 100+ years no building could be higher than his hat. Even legendary city planner Edmond Bacon honored this rule. (Is he best known for this or being dad to Kevin Bacon?!). Your architecture trivia for the day has ended

Fun fact: Those blue seats on Dodger Stadium field were in foul territory from 1962-2000. All that foul territory-and excellent pitching-gave it the reputation of being a pitchers park. Bet we could find some who threw from that mound prior to 2000 season that could tell us!

Cool Camden Yards trivia you may not know by @jeffbarker @baltimoresun Of course we would call Camden Yards a “ballpark”not a “stadium” - Larry Lucchino used to fine staff $1 if they used the “s” word, insisting we think of it differently www.baltimoresun.com/2026/03/09/c...
