Nelson W Wolff Municipal Stadium

This stadium and the San Antonio Missions make me proud to live in San Antonio. The facility is very family friendly. There are several entrances. Lots of great food and good people around enjoying great American baseball.
This is the life!

Such a great location to catch a ballgame!
The stadium is located right down the way from the Air Force Base, so you get giant cargo planes and fighter jets that dive bomb the field, do flybys, or buzz the field.
The seats are in great condition, and there’s no such thing as a bad seat at this field. It’s incredibly intimate at this field. I always know that when I talk trash to the opposing batters, I know that they can hear me clearly.
The parking rates are a bit on the high side of reasonable. It’s usually $ 5 to park here, but if you’re a crafty Unilocaler, you can park for free in the neighborhood down the street from the park. Never had an issue parking there, and you can get out quickly when the game is over.
I think the best night to go here is Dollar Night. If you read up on the schedule, you can find out when these nights are. One thin dollar for beer, hotdogs, or soda. What a deal!
I always love the fact that I walk out of here with a stack of valuable coupons for local sponsoring businesses. The certainly hook up their fans!
The entire place is so clean, and in great condition! Just be careful sitting along the first baseline, as that seems to be the area that gets pelted with foul balls!

After flying in from So. Cal., I wanted to catch a baseball game to pass the time. Without a major league team in town and with Houston/​Dallas hundreds of miles away, attending a Missions game was the next best thing.
Without a car, I took the bus from downtown to Wolff Stadium. The bus ride itself, albeit cheap at $ 1.25 one-​way, was an adventure in itself. If you ever want a bus tour of what a downtrodden Texas barrio looks like, board the 27 along Highway 90. Once you’re dropped off, you’ll have to walk towards the stadium which is about a quarter to half mile.
The stadium itself is nice, intimate, and charming. All your basic minor amenities are available (plenty of parking, cheap concession promos, great sight lines everywhere, etc.). The only minor negative is how disgusting the bathrooms are by the 5^th inning. For some reason, by then, men have a hard time hitting the «target» and there’s urine strewn across the floor, everywhere!

I came to the Wolff Stadium to watch the Missions play the Hooks this week.
I had a ton of fun, the tickets were cheap, and I even got a souvenir foam ball to bring home. I *think* the Missions won (being from Boston, it’s hard to get into another team…).
The only complaint is that the beer and hotdogs were as expensive as at a MLB stadium… comeee onnnnnnnnnnnn.

Yay! So, I am in no way a true baseball fan, but I absolutely love to come out to this stadium and watch the San Antonio Missions play.
This is a beautiful stadium that is unfortunately really far away from where I live. The best days to come out are on Thursday Dollar Night. Hot dogs, soda, pizza, and beer are all $ 1. Yeah, $ 1 beer.
The seats are actually relatively comfortable and the stadium is clean and very well-​lit. It’s hilarious when they grab kids out of the stands and have them run around a bat like their forehead is glued to it and then make them run all the bases. Great place to bring a family!

This is a pretty attractive park for a minor league baseball team. However, it couldn’t have been built in a stranger location (next to an air force base, but essentially in the middle of nowhere). The concessions here are pretty good and the ballcap logo is neat if you’re looking for a souvenir (but even in Texas, people will ask you why you went to Saudi Arabia to watch baseball).
The ballpark loses a whole star for the mascot. Ballapeno? Seriously? Henry the Puffy Taco is pretty cool (and draws on the concept of a popular SA restaurant) but he only makes brief appearances.
There is some neat history at Nelson Wolff. Guys like Joe Morgan, Dizzy Dean and Fernando Valenzuela all once played there prior to establishing their places among baseball’s major league stars.
