July 30, 200719 yr . . . Catch A Foul Ball. Dolphin Stadium, Section 143, July 31, August 1 or 2. The Marlins drew the fewest fans in the majors last year, averaging slightly more than 14,000 a game. The league has more right-handed than left-handed hitters, who tend to foul the opposite way, making an infield box down the first-base line your spot, says Jon Miller, play-by-play man for ESPN's Sunday Night Baseball. And the series -- midweek, good for low turnouts -- features the Colorado Rockies with Todd Helton, the reigning foul-ball king. Yeah, he's a lefty, so when he's up, hop on over to section 156 to maximize your chances. There probably won't be much traffic. Also has some other good "Best places to..." Link
July 31, 200719 yr I got one in Spring Training....but I don't count that...still waiting for one at a regular season game....I did get a broken bat once at a spring training game too.
July 31, 200719 yr Never had one myself, been to a lot of minor league games and a handful of majors.
July 31, 200719 yr I had a home run ball against the Reds in my glove but the dudes behind me pushed me and moved my glove, it dropped, I still tried to get it, I almost had it, and they stepped on my hand. They ended up getting it.
July 31, 200719 yr I got my first foul ball off Uggla earlier this year at the Mets Memorial Day series.
July 31, 200719 yr Yea I saw that a few weeks ago. BTW- That magazine is the best, every guy from age 18 and up should subscribe to it.
August 1, 200719 yr By Steven Wine, AP Sports Writer Few witnessed the Rockies' five-hitter. The announced crowd was 11,534, but actual attendance was likely less than 3,000. Looks like the Men's Health article was spot on.
August 1, 200719 yr Alfredo threw me a ball in right-center last night in the sixth. Don't know if anybody was out there, but I was the guy heckling Willy Taveres all night. Haha...
