Minor league ball is a great affordable baseball experience for a family. Free parking in Bethpage (albeit with a bit of a walk) reasonable concession prices, and you are much closer to the action with a much lower priced ticket than MLB. Some former Major Leaguers and coaches are on the field, and you get to see some future Major Leaguers as well and follow their career if you like. And let's face it, most kids today and many spouses aren't into baseball anyway so it doesn't matter who's on the field to them, but they can see up close what's going on. Foul balls are both a hazard and an opportunity. I caught a warm up ball that was being thrown around between innings, and was able to get it signed by the hitting star after the game. I love the corny little contests, events and races they do between innings as well. also most teams have fireworks nights so that's a good way to see a good pyrotechnical show from a comfortable seat. So, my review is more about Minor league baseball as opposed to Major league basebalI, I guess. I gave bethpage ballpark four stars, because the best regional 5 star minor league ballpark experience I had was for the Brooklyn Cyclones, who have a ballpark right on the boardwalk of Coney island. You can walk the beautiful boardwalk before and for free, but parking is only $6 if you have a ticket to the stadium. Right near the Brooklyn...

Cruel: Not allowing my son and I to bring in a water bottle with us when the temperature was 90 degrees is simply greedy and foolish. Greedy because they want to sell me a similar-sized bottle for $4.25 and foolish because I will never go back there again.

I understand that they want to make money, but I DID spend lots of money there (over fifty dollars on food for us and my son's grandfathers). I have no problem with the $6.50 hot dog or the $8.50 beer. Those things are par for the course at ballparks. However, even Citi Field lets each person bring in a bottle of water. Apparently Duck's stadium is too grand to follow the same sort of protocol and instead the security guards told us we can either chug the water bottles or throw them away. The funny thing is the security guards did not search us for weapons (as they do at Citi Field). Instead, the only thing they cared about is that my 12-year-old son and I had two bottles of water on a very hot day. So the only thing they were "securing" was their bet that we would succumb to thirst and pay them $4.25 for a something that costs 11 cents at Costco. It totally ruined the experience for me and cost them a...

Beautiful stadium, all seats are close to field. Tickets are inexpensive relative to MLB. In between innings, they have fun and games for fans in the field just like minor league stadiums. Why 4 stars..... Concessions have this thing for called catch. Scan the QR code and you can order and pay, then skip the line. Only problem lies when you go on site, it states all concessions are closed. So I am playing with site, ordering food even though concessions are closed and get told by site can't order because concessions are closed. After standing on line ordering in person, and eating my meal, my phone sends me a message that my order is ready for pick up. But I thought concessions were closed and I couldn't order. Now I am being told they received my order and they can't credit my account, now I get billed again, totally bs if you ask me, be forwarned and stay away from catch system, just wait in...
