Not one to start a flame war with another part of the state but:

https://www.chron.com/sports/astros/sli ... mpid=trend

Chronicle has an article on the new Globe Life Field ballpark.

And the twitter comments are pretty good.

My memory was they had a pretty nice looking ball park before.

This one has A/C. Big change.

It will never be at capacity because the government has grabbed us by the throat in the name of public health.

I'd rather they put together a better baseball team and play in the heat.

There are some pretty funny ones there.
I did like The Ballpark in Arlington. Great looking stadium in and out.
Regarding one of the comments there about the Stros having a trash can and winning the WS, though: They cheated to get there and win. It’s not something I would brag about. Kinda like or maybe even worse than deflate gate.

Watching baseball in the past I often wondered how they built a stadium without a roof with the heat they get in summer. Just like no roof in the north for spring and fall.
