Dugout looks huge...

Hey look, a real dugout.

From Capozzi

Guillen said he thought Marlins Park played “very very fair� in its first game tonight. He also noted the game was played with the roof closed, which was done just before game time when gusty winds turned into a rainy storm.

“Roof open, I don’t know which way the wind is going to go. But early when we took batting practice it was pretty ugly,� he said.

“People were hitting balls on the concourse. If that’s going to play like that, the (bleeping) roof is going to be closed every time. We come here to win games. We don’t come here to look good.

Gotta love Ozzie

We don't come here to look good? xD

Wow.

The aquarium's are only "partially stocked"...So I guess that means they're gonna be adding in some more fish sometime in the near future...

They are going to quadruple the number of fish I believe.

Rowand: Marlins Park=Nicest park in the whole league...Pretty big statement there.

 

"It's just as nice as _ if not nicer than _ any park in the league," said outfielder Aaron Rowand, a 12th-year veteran. "It's a state-of-the-art park.

Impressive comment since he played in what many consider the nicest park with the Giants.

Haven't read that but definitely feel like those tanks could handle a whole lot more fish than they have now...

LOL!

 

Morrison was so excited about his first game in the ballpark that he arrived at noon, seven hours before the first pitch. Construction workers putting finishing touches on the project didn't realize he was a player.

"They wanted me to get a hard hat," Morrison said. "The fire marshal was giving me grief. I said, `So am I going to have to wear a hard hat in left field tonight?'"

Empty seats? Same old Marlins.

Love how you could just watch the field straight through the fish tank...

So nice with the roof open...

Nice shot, though you could barely see through the windows on the field level...

Amazing.

I really like the way it looks now with the black batter's eye. The bright green isn't as overbearing; the green works well the way it is now.

I really thought the HR thing would suck. But after being at the game tonight it barley sticks out in the park. Also from some of the pics I thought the colors would be so bright and look stupid, not the case at all. I don't think you could think of building a nicer looking park then this. I was amazed being there. Love that you can walk around the whole park and still see the game from concourse.

Whats going on here? Is that paper or what

Loving the fish tanks!

Could be trash/debris blown over from the stands and concourses. It was very windy last night.

for those who were at the game last night, how was the ball carrying?

I agree but I think now they should paint the wall to the left of the HR thing black as well to balance it.

 

whatya think???
