we took our kids (5 and 3) to their first Major League Baseball game today! Came down to KC and saw the Royals and Jays. It was a beautiful day and thankfully a fast paced game so they made it 8 innings. I think my son will be ready for a trip to Wrigley next year. 

Suggestion:  Print out a copy of the box score.  Get a couple of baseball cards for a player or two from each team and maybe a pocket schedule.  Add the ticket stubs and a picture of everyone together and put everything in a folder for future reference.  

Good idea. We mentioned it was there first game when coming in and they pointed us to guest services. They gave them a certificate and some baseball cards 

That is awesome. I'm planning on taking my three kids to their first MLB game in August. I need to plan ahead to make it memorable.

Awesome how old and where you guys going?

For years I tried to figure out the first game I ever went to (not sure what happened to the ticket stub), but finally found it thanks to baseball reference.  It had the box score and everything.  I'm now working on a collection of players I've seen play in person.  Well eventually I will.

13 year old daughter and boys that are 10 and 6. Going to Denver to see the Rockies play the Red Sox when they come to town. I've been a lifelong Sox fan but we don't live close to a pro team so finally decided to make the trip. My boys are really into baseball and love the Red Sox so hopefully it is a good trip. Probably will hit both games in the series.

That’s a beautiful stadium! Enjoy

Just an FYI, at Camden Yards, visit the Fan Assistance Center and mention its your kid's first game, they will give them a certificate. I did that for both my kids!
