When the 2020 baseball schedule was announced I had this weekend circled. It doesn’t happen all that often, but the White Sox were to be in San Francisco May 8-9-10 to play the Giants. I’ve never been to San Fran, and it’s been on my list of places to visit for years now and I’ve just never gotten around to it.

When I do get there, I’ll be in Full Tourist Mode. Alcatraz, Golden Gate, etc. An extended trip with a few days out in Yosemite would be nice. But I need to go during baseball season, because I want to see a ballgame at Oracle Park. Ever since the park opened and the team moved from Candlestick I’ve wanted to go. It just looks like a beautiful park, built next to the water and an amazing view. I want to sit high up, perhaps down the first base line to get a good view of a ball hit out of the park into McCovey Cove. I don’t NEED to see the White Sox, but when the opportunity comes up once ever five or six years and I saw it on the schedule, I was interested.
