  • Temporary misting stations will be placed around the ballpark
  • Water jugs will be located throughout the stadium along with small paper cups, designed for fans to have a quick drink of water
  • Cold, wet towels will be available to fans for free
  • The price of bottled water at concessions stands will be dropped to $3
