It's hard not to like the park on the bay in San Francisco. Unlike my previous choice, Dodger Stadium, AT&T Park is quirky, far from symmetrical, and has tons of interesting sights and sounds to experience.
The first and most obvious feature of the park is the bay of water just beyond the 24 foot high brick right field wall. Barry Bonds made McCovey Cove famous as he would homer into it with a sea of boaters looking to catch his record breaking home runs. This is just the beginning of why I personally love this stadium.
Another feature of the park, which isn't totally accurately modeled is the bay temperatures and fog which will frequently roll in at night. This creates a unique vantage point to watch a game when fans are wearing winter like jackets in the middle of July.
The playing field features the 309 foot short right field line angling out to 421 feet in right center field. The outfield fence actually angles inwards to 400 feet and center and then rounds out to 339 feet down the left field line.
