| - What's with some of the hate for The BOB? By far and away, the biggest problem with this stadium is that it's about 150 times better to watch baseball outdoors than indoors, but more often than not the roof is closed here. While this is disappointing, anyone who has spent a summer in Phoenix knows that outdoor baseball in the summer, even at night, would be a disaster of epic proportions. It is just too damned hot.
You can find parking for as little as $3 here, seats aren't that expensive, there is ample opportunity to behave like a glutton here with the many food options, and the DBacks have been trotting out a scrappy, enjoyable team that is on the rise. This place gets docked one star for the roof being closed most of the time, and also for the organization's falling out with Jerry Colangelo, one of the true gentlemen in sports and the only person who could have brought a pro baseball team to Arizona.
