You can see a train in the background that brings in people from all over the county to enjoy a day out in the sun watching their favorite hometown team!

Baseball was a game born in the city, not in the countryside as often thought.

Agreed. I really like Crystal Falls overall. It (and Bayfront) reminds me of some of ASB's expansion parks, only with a minor league setup. I look forward to using it (and checking out the other four as well)!

That's exactly what I thought. Acclaim Sports Park also had a roller coaster out in right field.

I don't know if you guys noticed, but Acclaim Sports Park was really just Coors Field in reverse.

Crystal Falls is beautiful. Always nice to see more stadiums in the game as the minor league stadiums get a tad bit repetitive.

Be sure to check out Iron Horse Stadium... very cool (and unique).
