From the Back Cover
The Ultimate Minor League Baseball Road Trip is the comprehensive guide to minor league baseball parks throughout the country. Josh Pahigian, today’s leading baseball tour guide and co-author of the popular Ultimate Baseball Road-Trip, returns to give fans a book jam-packed with fun and useful tips for spending the day at any one of 119 minor league stadiums, plus information on the nation’s many independent leagues!
Part travel manual, part ballpark atlas, part baseball history, and part restaurant guide, The Ultimate Minor League Baseball Road Trip encompasses all the essential elements of a full-blown excursion along baseball’s “blue highways.” Readers get information on tickets and travel, the history and folklore of each team, comments on food, local traditions and team mascots, even advice on where the best seats are—right down to words of wisdom on how to avoid staring into the sun as it sets in the later innings! Writing with a love for the game and an insider’s knowledge of its hidden treasures, Pahigian gives fans the one book they'll ever need when planning the perfect minor league road trip.

Best bet to plan your visits!,

This review is from: The Ultimate Minor League Baseball Road Trip: A Fan's Guide to AAA, AA, A, and Independent League Stadiums (Paperback)
My son has post-it notes all over this book so that whenever either (or both) of us travels out-of-town for work or pleasure we can plan which team(s) to visit. The directions are mostly accurate, the descriptions vivid and history very interesting. Our main comment is that the author should have made this a loose-leaf edition and issue updates periodically. Highly recommended to baseball fans of all ages.
