I took this photograph on the 3rd base side including the left field corner. It is April 12, 1993 when the SF Giants played against the Florida Marlins. This was the inaugural year for the Marlins, where the team was created by an expansion draft in the off season of 1992.
I like the Press Box at Candlestick Park. It’s too bad I never had the opportunity to sit inside or walk thru it. It was a unique feature of Candlestick Park.
It was fun to be there on Opening Day where the stadium was filled to maximum capacity. The excitement in the air with such a large crowd was a memorable experience.
