Isotopes vs. Round Rock Express

Triple-A ball on a Thursday night, with the Isotopes hosting Round Rock under the Sandia backdrop that makes this one of the better places in the minors to watch a game. The park sits right on Central, so you can walk in from a pre-game meal without moving your car, and the upper deck on the third-base side catches the evening breeze better than anywhere else in the stadium. Gates typically open 90 minutes before first pitch, which is worth knowing if you want a spot on the grass berm before it fills up with families.
