Nice park, but I'm picky so here goes:
It has the biggest video board in the Cactus League, and it is quite nice, but under-utilized. No video replays during the game, no pitch velocity, pitch count, or even who's pitching. And no batting order, just the current batter. The display was very bare bones!

No stretcher, as she passed out, no wheelchair, just 2 dudes on bikes... It was a horrendous scene in lack of emergency preparedness... I was floored that there wasnt a better first aid center up on the top level... especially when there are so many seniors there. You should probably think about...
