"With a timeless, intimate atmosphere, John Thurman Field is a dream for baseball nostalgists as well as fans (of any era) who can never get too close to the action. Whereas some Minor League parks are beloved for frills ranging from amusement park rides to luxury boxes that could be mistaken for fine restaurants, this ballyard is a favorite because it's all about baseball. The Nuts imbue the gameday atmosphere with MiLB-style fun in the form of mascots, between-innings entertainment and local flavor, but the game itself is king." -- MiLB.com
