The screenshots of the stadiums don't do them justice, they are magnificent!

On to the point of the post... On opening day 1969 Tom Seaver no-hit the Expos. It would have been a perfect game except Bud Harrelson committed an error.

Boxscore and newspaper..

Oh, and just have to add I did see the Orioles play 2 games in'73 vs the Twins at The Met. Not a lot of change in the team from '69-'71. Palmer and Cuellar pitched. Still had the great lineup. I hated those guys
My very first trip to Tiger Stadium was for a game against the Twins, 1972.
