The beginning of a new age of Cincinnati Reds baseball is detailed in full-color splendor through this remarkable new book. Opening Day at Great American Ball Park follows all of the activities of the inaugural Opening Day at Cincinnati's new home for baseball, as the Reds battled the Pittsburgh Pirates on Monday, March 31, 2003. Located at 100 Main Street, the new stadium features a grass field and seating for over 42,000 baseball-crazed fans, making it the new standard for ballparks across America. Photos filling every page capture glimpses of the fans, an inside tour of Great American Ball Park, the field, and, of course, the players who make it all possible.
