Kj's Baseball Collection: Comerica Park

The second baseball I got at Comerica Park is one of the park. One strip has a brick background. On this strip is a Comerica Park logo and a Detroit Tigers D logo. The other strip has an image of the park. Many of the ballpark balls I have gotten just have a field view on this strip and the view does not look too unique. This one is unique because its view is of the two tigers on the scoreboard.

Kj's Baseball Collection: Tigers 1984 World Series Champions 25th Anniversary

One of the two baseballs I got at Comerica Park was a 25th Anniversary one. This ball commemorates the Tigers winning their last World Series in 1984 when they triumphed over the Padres. The ball has a 25th Anniversary logo that says World Series Champions in a ribbon above the 25 and a ribbon that says 1984 and 20099 with a Detroit Tigers D logo in the middle. On one strip of the ball their is a SD Padres logo on one side, a little version of the 25th logo in the middle, and a Tigers D logo on the other side. Opposite the big 25th logo is World Series 1984 logo.

Mik's Mini Bat Collection: Comerica Park

I just posted about the Orange Detroit Tigers bat Mik got at Comerica Park. He got that one because he does not have a logo one for the Tigers and it looked cool. He also spotted this one of Comerica Park. He asked me to choose which one he should get and I just told him he could get both, since I was also in the same predicament trying to choose between two balls and was leaning towards getting both. It certainly was not fair for me to end up with my two balls and still make him choose only one bat, so we both got two things at Comerica Park.

The Comerica Park mini bat is natural on the bottom and has a brick design background on the top. On the brick design is an oval image of the park that has Comerica above the image and Park below the image. It is a lot like Mik's Wrigley Field bat.

Mik's Mini Bat Collection: Orange Detroit Tigers

At Comerica Park there was quite a few mini bats to choose from. Mik had a hard time deciding and actually ended up with two bats from here. This one is an Orange colored one. It has the Tigers D logo in the middle of the words Detroit Tigers.

Mik’s Food Scrapbook: Comerica Park

At the Detroit Tigers game Mik had a Coney Dog. It was not as good as the Skyline Chili one he had at the Reds game or in Cincinnati yesterday. The main thing he did not like about it was that Dad did not realize he could ask for it with cheese. Also, Mik thought the hot dog in it and the chili on it was not as good as the Skyline Chili ones. It was not horrible, but it just was not as good as he thought it would be. Mik also tried the fries and did not really like them because they had an odd seasoning on them.





Mik did enjoy the Pepsi Icee, though. He also had a Cherry one, but he said the consistency of that one was not very good. That might have been because we got it when the park first opened and the machines had not been running long, though. He thought the Pepsi one tasted like a Coke Icee and while he does not usually like Pepsi over Coke because Pepsi tastes bad warm the Icee tastes good because it the Pepsi stays cold long enough for you to finish it.

Day 32: Tiger Stadium

After the Detroit Tigers game on June 20, 2009, we drove by the ballpark they used before moving into the current park. Not much is left of Tiger Stadium, as they began the final demolition earlier this month, but there still was a good chunk of it left to see and photograph. It certainly is not the best way to have seen it, but it is better than missing it entirely, since it is supposed to be entirely gone by the end of this month.

Car Sticker Update: Chicago Cubs

None of the team shops at Wrigley Field carried any stickers, but one of the shops tipped us off to ushers having them in their pockets to give out. Dad ended up getting two of them and he put both on the window. Since we do not have a Reds one despite trying all three times we were in the Cincinnati area, it makes up for missing one. Plus having two Cubs ones is better than going to get another White Sox one, which Dad did try to get at Walgreens when we were in Chicago for the Cubs game, but he could not get there because of some movie premiere blocking the street.
