Not one to start a flame war with another part of the state but:

Chronicle has an article on the new Globe Life Field ballpark.

And the twitter comments are pretty good.

My memory was they had a pretty nice looking ball park before.

The big question now is who's going to fill it?

It will never be at capacity because the government has grabbed us by the throat in the name of public health.

I'd rather they put together a better baseball team and play in the heat.

There are some pretty funny ones there.
I did like The Ballpark in Arlington. Great looking stadium in and out.
Regarding one of the comments there about the Stros having a trash can and winning the WS, though: They cheated to get there and win. It’s not something I would brag about. Kinda like or maybe even worse than deflate gate.

Watching baseball in the past I often wondered how they built a stadium without a roof with the heat they get in summer. Just like no roof in the north for spring and fall.
