Oracle Park Review
Oracle Park, home of the San Francisco Giants, is the best stadium in baseball out of all 30 stadiums.
As you walk around the outside of the stadium, you have a great view of the bay area and the ocean on the other side of the outfield wall.
At the area outside of McCovey Cove (the right field area named after a Giant great) there are people in small boats outside of the stadium, hoping to get home run balls.
As a New Yorker, palm trees are a very cool sight to see, and there are palm trees at the main entrance and right by the walking area by the water.
One thing I noticed while at Oracle is that they don’t have a normal hall of fame section inside of the stadium. Instead, they have something called a wall of fame, which are plaques along the walls outside of the stadium. I think it’s cool, but nothing beats the traditional hall of fame inside of the a stadium.
One of the reasons why Oracle Park is known as one of the best stadiums in the MLB is because of the view from anywhere you sit. Where I sat, I had a great view of the whole outfield. The outfield is the most beautiful spot of the stadium because of the palm trees and the bay right behind it.
Even the outfield inside the stadium looks great because of the coca-cola bottle statue in left field, which also has slides for children on the inside. Next to it is a giant baseball glove, which you sadly can’t sit in.
Right field is my personal favorite spot because of the great view and the giant wall. For baseball, it is pretty rare to have a giant wall in a stadium, and it could lead to some crazy plays out on the field. When it comes to looks, it is surprisingly appealing to look at, something about it is just really cool to me.
I would say the best spot to sit is probably anywhere on the first base side or the third base side, just so you could get a view of the outfield.
When it comes to food, there are a lot of options. You have your traditional chicken tenders and fries, hotdogs, and burgers. But because I wasn’t that hungry, I just went with garlic fries because I heard it is the most popular food item at Oracle Park.
Personally, I wasn’t a fan, but just because I didn’t like it doesn’t mean that you won’t like it. So if you want something that you can’t get anywhere else besides a California stadium, then give the garlic fries a shot.
My final thoughts for this stadium are pretty quick to the point because there isn’t that much to say. This is by far the best stadium I’ve ever been to, the experience was great, the atmosphere was chill, and the weather was absolutely perfect. 10/10 experience.
If you’re in San Francisco and love baseball or don’t care about the sport, this is a great experience for everyone.
