Left Field Entrance
This is where I entered the park, because the entrance at the Jackie Robinson Rotunda was a madhouse. I like the black and white photos of Tom Seaver, Tug McGraw, Rusty Staub, Darryl Strawberry, Dwight Gooden, etc.
Above each entrance is a steel figurine (sculpting?) of a key moment in Mets history. As seen below, left field is marked by “the catch” that made Endy Chavez forever immortalized.
Next post: left field from the inside.
