FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Ballparkroadtrip.com sets 2002 schedule -- Philly, NYC, Montreal, and Boston
SHELTON, CT - February 19, 2002 - Three college friends take to the road each year under the moniker "Ballparkroadtrip.com" in the effort to see every Major League Baseball team play in their respective home stadium. The schedule for this years trip is as follows:
5/23 - Mets @ Phillies
5/24 - Marlins @ Mets
5/25 - Phillies @ Expos
5/26 - Yankees @ Red Sox
This will be the most exciting and meaningful trip to date for several reasons. The potential elimination of the Expos will change baseball history and remove an interesting city from the baseball tour circuit, the Phillies getting a new stadium will knock the Vet" off the list, NYC has amazing nightlife and baseball history, and the Yanks@Sox for a Sunday night game in Fenway Park is simply unbeatable. After this years trip, the guys will have visited 12 of 30 baseball teams together.
All of the trips are documented on their website, http://www.ballparkroadtrip.com, which includes commentary and analysis on each game they see and also detailed descriptions of the towns and stadiums visited. The typical trip involves visiting 4 different teams in 4 days. Unlike some other roadtrippers who take an entire summer to visit all 30 stadiums, ballparkroadtrip.com sets a more achievable example to follow, by taking a long weekend each year, and gradually chipping away at the milestone.
