Unleash your inner ballpark designer/interior decorator.

Mike Ehrmann

Milwaukee Brewers offer

free syringes to the first 15k fans in commemoration of Ryan Braun’s MVP season, 1000 lucky syringes actually have miniscule amounts of HGH as a "boost" to the fan base.

This week: The Diamondbacks are in St. Pete for a two game stretch against the Rays. As we all know (and were reminded of last night) Tropicana Field is kind of a dump (to put it mildly) and that of all the teams, they probably have the best case to get a shiny, new field. However, that put this challenge idea in this head:

Give me a pitch for a ballpark that you would build. Is it pitcher or hitter friendly? What sort of extra distractions amenities does it have? It doesn't necessarily have to be for a specific team, but go for it, if you want.

Give your pitches, rec the other ones you like. The winner will be able to get their local cash-strapped municipality to bend over backwards to build your ballpark idea for you!

DO IT NOW!
