Isotopes Park Photo Album
|
This is a view of most of the lower seating bowl, the Luxury Suites and Press
Level above the seating bowl, and the left-field "upper deck" as seen from
behind the right-field wall.
|
|
A view of downtown Albuquerque, as seen from the last row of the left-
field "Upper Deck" grandstand. University Blvd. is the street in the picture.
|
|
A view of the infield and the lower seating bowl, Luxury Suite level,
and Press Level as seen from the picnic area.
|
|
A view of the main scoreboard as seen from the left-field "Upper Deck"
grandstand. A video scoreboard is to the left with the linescore part of
the scoreboard below it. Another video scoreboard is to the right,
surrounded by advertising that is currently being installed with the crane
seen in the picture.
|
|
A closeup of the linescore part of the scoreboard as seen from the
picnic area. The linescore part is LED-lit and the time/temperature display below
the linescore appears to be light bulbs.
|
|
The left-field "Upper Deck" Grandstand as viewed from the concourse
on the right side of the field.
|
|
This is a view of the infield as best as could be captured by a camera
from the first row of the lower seating bowl.
|
|
The view of left field as seen from the last row of the left-field "Upper
Deck" grandstand. The picnic area can be seen to the left of the
scoreboard and the sloping hill in the field of play and the batter's eye
can be seen to the right of the scoreboard.
|
|
A view of right field from the last row of the left-field "Upper Deck"
grandstand. The lower seating bowl goes just about to the right-field
foul pole and there is an elevated seating area in the right-field corner.
|
|
The big Isotopes sign as seen from outside the ballpark.
|
|
The front gates of the stadium. The finely-crafted blend of stainless
steel and copper was fabricated by Albuquerque-based High Desert Forge.
|
|
A view of the first-base dugout. It is amazing how good a view fans
in the first few rows can get looking into the dugout and seeing the
players milling around.
|
|
A view of the helmet rack and bat rack. There is also a good closeup
of the end of the bench to see how the bench was put together.
|
|
A view of the left-field "Upper Deck" grandstand as viewed from the
concourse.
|
|
A view of the diamond and scoreboard as seen from the concourse.
|
|
A view of center field as seen from the last row of the left-field "Upper
Deck" grandstand. There is a sloping hill in deep center field that is in
the field of play. Some greenery and some green mesh make up the
batter's eye.
|
|
A closer view of the sloping hill as seen from the picnic area. The
crane in the picture is putting advertising on the scoreboard. The sloping
hill has about the same slope than the hill at Minutemaid Park in Houston.
|
|
A view of Isotopes Park from outside the stadium.
|
|
A view of the Isotopes Park sign at night. There are no moving lights to the logo, just neon-lit.
|
|
A side-view of the left-field "upper deck" along with the concourse below the stands
|
|
A closer look at the club seat and luxury suite levels. A look into the concourse
area is seen underneath the club level seats. A local restaurant concession stand has neon signage.
|
|
The entry doors to McKernan Hall (provides Club and Suite and Press Level Entry).
The lobby area is named for former Albuquerque Dukes General Manager Pat McKernan.
|
|
There are several signs like this around the ballpark with an interesting
fact about the Dukes or Isotopes.
|
|
A view from "up high" of the center-field sloping hill and batters eye.
The Albuquerque Technical Vocational Institute (TVI) campus is seen in the background.
|
|
A view of the multi-layered berm area located behind the right-field
fence.
|
|
Looking through the batter's eye mesh towards the diamond.
|
|
Lots of these signs litter the Picnic Pavillion in left-field. You
would think this would be common-sense but the Isotopes probably had to
put these signs up for legal reasons.
|
|
A view of the indoor batting cage. There are two pitching mound/
home plate configurations that make up the indoor batting cage.
|
|
This is the Isotope Manager's office/locker. It is pretty spacious and
allows the manager to have a desk, a couch (not seen in this photo), a locker to hang up
uniforms and suits, and a television complete with cable television and a VCR.
|
|
This is the player's locker room.
|
|
This is a view of the field that you would get by properly sitting
on the dugout bench. Now you can see why players would sit on top of
the "backrest" of the benches to get a better view of the action.
