South Side Hit Men Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 You can check out the Hockey Hall of Fame as well, though wish the Expos were in my favorite Canadian city. San Diego is a great place to visit as well, and a rare venue for White Sox baseball. Added bonus, you may bump into Caulfield. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a great trip, and we loved it. Stay at the hotel at the ballpark for sure, get a field view room, even if the team isn't in town. If you want to catch other ballparks, you can catch Detroit on the way if you go the Canadian route, or Cleveland if you come back the toll road. I am getting more and more excited about this idea...I better start figuring out the logistics...it might be hard to get tix for the defending World Series Champs even on the road.

Damn it, now I need to wait 3 years maybe for the Sox to play here. Now I wish they'd expand interleague a little bit more... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CentralChamps21 Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 If I don't take classes next summer, my road game options are going to be KC, NY, TOR, TB, DET, HOU, LA, SF, CLE, MIN, COL, TEX Might do my first ever solo trip. Toronto is appealing given that the drinking age is 19. Probably should start the process of getting a passport now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking at the whole season at once really shines a light on the unbalanced schedule. Maybe they could pare it back just a little bit (in the future, obv.).

Also IF we are really really lucky either the Bulls or Blackhawks could be in Toronto the same time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reiks12 Posted August 5, 2021 Share Posted August 5, 2021 3 series to start the season in the cold north, ill never understand that 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beautox Posted August 5, 2021 Share Posted August 5, 2021 Looking forward to seeing them in Colorado and likely San Fran. I do think the royals or tigers take steps forward all the while the twins and Cleveland step further back so it'll round out but the Central should be wide open for the Sox.

If the NBA and NHL both go back to their normal schedules, the Sox will be in Toronto the same time those leagues are in their conference finals. Impossible for the Hawks to be there then and a Bulls-Raptors conference final seems awfully unlikely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teams and players want a balanced mix of home and away games throughout the season, and this schedule accomplishes this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, April is the most likely month to have rainouts, so you want as many division games as possible because they are easier to schedule makeup games. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Next time, if there is a next time, I'm definitely doing it 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did Toronto and New York with Cooperstown and Niagara falls 21 years ago and it was awesome. Cooperstown (hopefully it hasn’t changed) is absolutely special.
