TV: SNY Radio: WFAN

What to watch: Perez has turned into a consistent winner in the second half of his contract season. The Braves are just playing out the string this year after trading Mark Teixeira away. Reyes has lost five of his last six starts for the Braves. Look for the Mets to take this one.

I have not been to Pac Bell or whatever they call it this week, but PNC is phenomenal . My younger Brother has been to Citizens Bank Park, he says that place is sweet and gets 8 rating out of 10, he gives Shea a 4 out of 10 and PNC gets a 10. I have been to Dodger Stadium, I thought that place was very nice, especially when you consider the fact that it is older than Shea, but PNC is a wow!! Too bad for Bucs fans the Pirates are horrible. The fans are also very nice --unlike the fans at Philly and certainly the fans at Yankee Stadium, I wrote a blog about New York's two baseball stadiums past and future about a month ago. check it out if you want, http://robintheboywonderingwtf.wordpress.com/

Tremendous pictures! The park looks beautiful. I had read that only San Francisco has a nicer stadium than Pittsburgh. It looks like it was a great weekend there.
