The new area behind the left field grandstand is sweet. To the left of this is even more space, with a couple of food vendors, Wally's area, and the new Autograph Alley.

Pat admires Thing 1 and Thing 2.

There are weird new tunnels behind the third base grandstand.

Dice comes out of the dugout for the first time.

Dice in the outfield.

Runnin'.

Bottom left: Empy, in red. Right: the field. What a sweet seat.

The Monster and the King.

Dustin on one leg.

Some dudes.

The two classics.

Dice on the hill.

Check out Manny in this shot.

Papi at the plate as Manny looks on.

Dice at the top of his wind-up.

The heat twins.

Dusin draws a walk.

Dice with flag.
