Major League Savings With Minor League Baseball!

by Eric H.
McCoy Stadium in Pawtucket, RI, is home to the Triple A Pawtucket Red Sox, as well as a great bargain. At this writing, general admission for adults is a cheap $6.00 for adults and $4.00 for children 12 and under and senior citizens. What's more, you get to see one of the best farm systems,as the Boston Red Sox organization has really scouted recent players well. Over the past few years, players like Jonathan Papelbon, Jon Lester, and Dustin Pedroia have graduated from Pawtucket to Major League Baseball star status, with another nucleus of potential starts on the way (like Clay Buchholz and Justin Masterson). The stadium is beautifully laid out with not a bad seat in the house (10,031 seating capacity) and a terrific concession stand, including Papa Gino's pizza and Del's Lemonade (and of, course, peanuts and crackerjacks...and beer)!
