If anyone wants to give Skylands Stadium a go...

My home away from home for the last 5 years, here's my view from the broadcast booth. If anyone wants to give the "Old Red Barn" a go...

(I'm going to go back in the next day or so to take a better panorama pic of the stadium)

Nice little park. Didn't they do an X-Files episode near there?

To my knowledge, no X-Files episode was shot there...but that might have been before the Miners!

And yeah, they like to get creative with the haircut they give the field!

They did. It was an opening scene about an alien being found at a minor league ballpark. They used this park.

Must have been in the NJ Cardinals days...way before I started occupying the press box! (Phil Pepe was back then!)

WOW.... That is a name I haven't heard in a long time. Holy smokes!

Wasn't he on CBS-FM for a while? Or was it PLJ?

Bret,

I did start on this and paused it, but opened it back up today. This is what i have so far. Thoughts? How exactly do they have the second tier of fences set up, as that is really all I have left to do.
