R.B.I. field

[Re-Peat]

Which real-life MLB stadium does the MLB field remind you of the most?

I could make this a poll, but I didn't want to throw a ton of options up...  call me lazy.

Personally, I think if one were to change the scoreboard green and put a clock on it, the place would be a dead ringer for Wrigley.  I know it's a generic kind of design, but everytime I hit one over the walls I can't help but think it's Waveland or Sheffield.  That's weird because I hate the Cubs.

Astrodome

thankfully it doesnt resemble 3 rivers stadium, the vet, or that dump the reds used to play in.  worst 9 road games in a row a team could play.

that would be the grounds for terminating that fucking game.

actually, i think it looks the most like a cookie-cutter stadium from those you listed, tbt.

the outfield seating is most similar to dodger stadium, from my memory.  but i wonder if it resembles old county stadium in milwaukee or where cleveland used to play, too??

Yeah, any stadium built in the 70s with no personality to it.

i was going to say the same thing, too. the first thing i thought of was a boxy 3rivers. it sorta does look a lot like cleveland municipal, the way the walls are a bit more squared, plus the hitters eye with the scoreboard right above.


eerie (and not the mistake by the lake).

[Gantry]

That looks pretty close right there nomaaa

[TβG]

since the game came out in japan, maybe it resembles one from over there??

[Attezz]

Good call, although it wasn't open yet, I'd say the Tokyo Dome was based on Tengen Field

The outfield seats being one tier, and the scoreboard/hitter's eye are almost identical

[TβG]

that looks good to me.... but it's a dome....s

[Attezz]

Based on the light fixtures, the bowl type configuration, the open air behind the outfield bleachers and the scoreboard/hitter's eye, I'm gonna go with Utsunomiya Kiyohara Stadium I haven't been able to find too many good pictures though.

dude, i would say that's almost perfect.  good work gumshoe [/gantry]

carmen sandiego was her own woman, she didn't have a boss.  now you, the wiley report, you had a boss...and they might say something a lot like that...

Excellent topic!

Re-Peat, I just bumpsted a thread with links to many other threads that you might also find interesting - we basically looked inside RBI to see what made it tick, and I don't think any of us will ever be the same again
