  1. love the behind the plate camera angle.
    u can see the factory and ware houses in the background.
    remember the view of the cutty sark sign above northern blvd and the blinking neon sign of the serval zipper factory to the left of the batters eye?
    thats why i loved shea because it was not enclosed…until that ugly diamond vision board was added.

  2. i was there. dark and cold.
    i do not remember any warm home openers. it was always freezing.
    looking at hte graphic,looks like the NBC game of the week.
    loved to see the 18 wheel nbc trucks pull into shea on a thursday to run the cables into the stadium
