    Oracle Park in San Francisco, California was an extremely beautiful and overwhelmingly fun stadium to watch baseball in and we cannot wait to show it off for you...

    We are spoiled in SF both by our ballpark, and even if you're not at the park the broadcast team of Kruk, Kuip, Fleming, and the great Jon Miller is a crew 2nd to none.

    Oracle is one of those ballparks you can't really find anything bad about. It's a great place just in general and I still haven't done all the things I've wanted to do despite going to multiple games each season for the past couple years. It's one of those venues that I want to see stay for the rest of my life due to it being in the best area for just about everything from scenic views to how easily accessible it is. Imagine robbing a splash hit though.

    As a person who grew up in the bay and still lives in northern california, this is what the A's need. The Howard Terminal site can be just as good, if not better than what oracle park is. Imagine having 2 bay area teams with beautiful waterfront ballparks, and hopefully, an owner who actually cares about baseball.
    The A's deserve a beautiful ballpark just like the giants deserved theirs

    I'm a Pads fan but I love this ballpark. I've been lucky that the past two companies I worked for had offices downtown (FiDi and SoMa) so we could just walk to Oracle after work (or after leaving early). And that those two companies had yearly employee events of attending a game. My friends and I would also just randomly hit up games with cheap scalper tix before we went out for the night. And the fact that my commute train is literally right outside the ballpark, it's in a fun area, and it's beautiful makes it a no brainer to go to games for me. And, as you stated, there's a bunch of stuff to check out aside from baseball. I've been to a couple dozen games and had to idea there was erven an arcade with skee ball and cornhole.

    Hey SRS… Thanks for showing San Francisco some love! I’m a lot older than you I grew up, going to candlestick, still have some sentimental feelings towards that wind tunnel. But Oracle is a true gem!
    We’re still sitting on the number 99 for splash hits by a giant! Any bets on who’s going to hit number 100? Joc, Pederson, Crawford, Wade, Sabol, Conforto… I don’t think a right handed batter has yet to hit it into McCovey cove.

    Native San Franciscan and lifelong Giant's fan in complete agreement that Oracle/AT&T/SBC/Pac Bell Park is amazing. Love that you highlighted so much. You used to be able to walk right up to those grated fences in the Right Field Arcade and take in the game for free for a couple of innings.
    Also, I'm guessing you fellas didn't get club level access but the Club Level has a whole bunch of memorabilia on display. Stuff from the World Series wins, Timmy's no hitters, Matt Cain's perfect game, and other stuff like that. It's really a great combo of entertainment center and museum to all things Baseball Giants.

    It's a great place to get asked to leave by SF finest for hurting the visiting pen's feelings on a Tuesday night while hangin' with some old friends after a few years of nit seeing each other. The Nats pen are a bunch of this skinned willies. Seeing Schmidt hit that homer in his debut was cool too. Helluva park. Watched Bonds' last homer while standing in the notch hole in right. Happy to see them win all those titles in the 2010's but I just feel bad for all the Giant fans who were then, thinking that this was the normative experience for Giants baseball. Great vid gents, glad you liked the stadium. Did y'all get out to other parts of SF?

    A tradition that my friend and I do all the time is on Mlb the show 19. There’s a glitch where you can literally just run into the dugout with your fielders in that game and you can run anywhere in the whole stadium. It’s absolutely hilarious cause you can run all the way to the other side of mccovey cove and do a bunch of goofy shit. It literally only works on oracle park and it is the funniest thing ever

    Carried by the ocean front view. If clown designs and random bullshit is a criteria for being a good ballpark, the oracle is right for you. From just a stadium and not location perspective, I think the other 4 NL west stadiums are better designed. If you are just there to watch and focus on a game, there's nothing particularly special about it.
