With spring training underway and only 57-days until the Senators opening day (April 16th) the Senators continue their recent media blitz releasing more information on the renovations and additions to Commerce Bank Park for the 2009 season. This media release comes with artist renditions of the new picnic areas located in right and left fields. According to the press release the addition of the picnic area will provide the “ability to handle over 1,000 fans in all of their picnic areas”.

Looks nice, though I wonder if the Senators, for select games, like the Reading Phillies (with their Ribfests for example) and Lancaster Barnstormers (I know they had a few games last season where they sold individual tickets to their picnic area) do from time to time, have the picnic area open for individual tickets.

Ill definitely, as I said in a previous post on this topic a while back, will be in the left field seating area, since I love watching ballgames from the outfield.

It's going to be nice to have all the additions this year. With all the promotion and renovations it's going to be an exciting year.

I'll be sure to stop out and see you in left field.
