All MLB Teams Seen In Person

On Wednesday, August 1st, I'll be heading down to Detroit to check out the Reds and the Tigers.

Although both teams are struggling this year, with sub-.500 records, this game (*crossing fingers for no rain*) will mean that I will have seen all 30 MLB teams in person.

Sure, most of those games have been in Toronto (I've only seen games at the Rogers Centre/SkyDome, Metrodome, Target Field, Fenway Park, PNC Park, Comerica, and whatever they now call the White Sox Stadium these days).  Oh, and one Expos game at Olympic Stadium (against the Blue Jays, to boot!).

I've seen 63 games involving the Blue Jays (32-31 record), although only two have been on the road (2003 in Montreal against the Expos, and 2007 against Minnesota).

Aside from the Jays, here are some other team facts:

Teams Seen Most (5 Games+)
9 Games - Tampa Bay
8 Games - LA Angels, Minnesota
7 Games - Boston
6 Games - NY Yankees
5 Games - Kansas City

Teams Undefeated (2+ Game Minimum)
3-0 San Diego
2-0 Montreal/Washington

Teams Winless (2+ Game Minimum)
0-2 Atlanta
0-2 Colorado

Teams Seen for First Time NOT in Toronto
Chicago White Sox (7/31/02 - Metrodome)
Minnesota Twins (7/31/02 - Metrodome)
Montreal Expos (6/21/03 - Olympic Stadium)
Chicago Cubs (6/25/06 - Metrodome)
Pittsburgh Pirates (8/10/12 - PNC Park)
