Upton eat your heart out
Last year in the last preseason game of the year my company rented out the dugout on field level at At&T park. It was freezing that night but I just wanted to let you know it's really something watching the Giants from there.

1. I wonder if Upton has ever been to China Basin.
He lives in Washington state.

While I went to Candlestick more times than I could count, I've only been back to the Bay Area once since the new park opened. I have managed to see the Giants a couple times up in Safeco though. My big memory was back in 2001, as Bonds homered off of Paul Abbott in the first inning. I can still hear all the great Giants fans, and some M's fans too, roaring....
