e have this neat slice of baseball here in the Capital region. The ValleyCats are a minor league baseball team that have all the promotions, fireworks and kid friendly events that you can think of. The baseball can be very competitive, the new stadium is first class and ticket prices ($5-$10) can’t be beat for entertainment value.
For my photography, getting seats close to the visitors side first base is key. Here I’ll set up my 200-400 V2 on a mini-pod on top of the visitor dugout to get the pitchers and plate, and I’ll use my other camera body setup with a 70-200m to get first base, infield action and inside stadium promotional activity (it can be crazy sometimes!). It’s just a fun time, and another big plus, they will bring you nice cold beers seatside …Go Cats…..
