Hey Bob: Maybe if they get this Stillwell Avenue-Coney Island tour off the ground in late spring or early summer, we can include the Polo Grounds shuttle as part of a general subway tour. We can make a weekend out of it. Just a thought. I like the idea of going into an abandoned tunnel, but as a kid I always thought the Polo Grounds was the biggest disgrace in baseball. It looked like a big bathtub with those ridiculously short lines and no clubhouses except in center field. I remember the last time I was there; it was May 30, 1954 and the Brooklyn Dodgers beat the New York Giants 5-3 behind Johnny Podres. Dusty Rhodes ended the game looking at a third strike, but Willie Mays did hit an inside the park homer. It was a fun game.
