Blinded By The Light

First Base, Right Field, Beyond, originally uploaded by Gary P. Smith.

The light towers are in the form of toothbrushes, just like those at Cleveland’s (since renamed) Jacobs Field. While Tiger Stadium’s distinctive bank of lights could be spotted from most places in Detroit, Comerica Park is only visible from a short distance. The field is dug below street level, so the ballpark doesn’t appear to be very large as you approach it from the outside. Image by Gary P Smith, September, 2012.
