“I’ve been a ‘Ballpark Chaser’ by proximity, not by priority. This summer, that changes. It’s time for the Double-Digit Breakthrough.”
The Audit: Ghosts and Ground Rules

Before looking forward to the “Road to 30,” I had to take a honest look back at the map. In this episode, I audit my current stadium list—which currently sits at 15 parks—and separate the “active” credits from the “ghosts” of MLB’s past. I audit my current stadium list—which currently sits at 15 parks—and separate the 9 ‘active’ credits and the two stadium tours from the 4 “ghosts”.
I’m also laying out my Official Rules of the Road. What counts as a “credit”? How long do you have to stay for the game to be official? And why is a specific piece of evidence mandatory before I’ll log a stadium in the app? We’re setting the standard for the rest of the season.
The I-95 Blueprint: A Triple-Play Summer

The heart of this episode is the blueprint for July. I’m putting 1,200 miles on the Chrysler Town & Country for a trip that is pure self-reliance and intentional growth.
• Stadium 10: Moving into the double digits in the City of Brotherly Love.
• Stadium 11: Returning to the park that defined the “Modern Classic” era for a “Full Circle” moment.
• Stadium 12: Capping off the breakthrough in the Nation’s Capital.
Why the Breakthrough Matters
This isn’t just about a count; it’s about the Psychology of the Rebuild.
• Intentionality: Moving from “accidental” visits to a planned mission.
• Option C: Choosing the path that prioritizes personal growth and “The Work” over just floating along.
• The Audacity of Potential: Having the courage to look at a map and say, “I’m going there because I’ve decided it’s time.”

The Road to 1,000 Days
We are now exactly 32 days away from the 1,000-day milestone on May 31st. Can you believe it?! The finish line is in sight, but the rebuild never ends.
“No glitz. Just the work.”
