All new tinted tropical Miami Marlins could make local taxpayers - the stage in brilliant color, expensive free agents, exotic aquarium fish and surrealist Joan Miro art, right up to the concession stand cebiche - there were those who experienced the size of the raw, sticky, do not apply.
Kyle Lohse of the St. Louis Cardinals painted the corners with colorless 83 miles / h slider 91 miles / h, and sinker, and changeup Curveball effectively blinded by the novelty of reminding everyone that baseball is usually like those who go back to basics. Lohse worked smoothly Marlins six innings and aimlessly 7 1/3 of the 4.1 win on Wednesday night.
He is in his 12th season, getting on to the trick, gave the opening day starter, because that Chris Carpenter and Adam Wainwright was wounded was wounded.
"I tried not to let anything distract me and treated like any other game," said Lohse.
Cardinals - Cardinals World Champion, you see, without being distracted by shiny city of Miami on the horizon stands in left field, jumping on the Marlins ace Josh Johnson for three races in the first two innings. Swing like the Cardinals need to come from David Freese, whose great series, wrapped up in his first at-bat in 2012, two of a two-run at the top of the first.
Perhaps caught up in the stadium, Marlins are soft. The new $ 106 million shortstop Jose Reyes finally got to the vine with one start the seventh, but in the next three batters were retired. Logan Morrison, an outstanding beginning of the eighth, and Lohse was removed after beating Gaby Sanchez. John Buck scored twice with two Morrison, the only chance a sellout crowd of 36,601 had to cheer.
The game was an opportunity to show Marlins park national television audience on the opening day before the opening, just push the cover - retractable roof was opened shortly before the first ball, leaving a soft, cloudless sky, the moon and the airship Goodyear.
Leaving aside for a moment a dirty background of how the Marlins owner Jeffrey Loria was able to finance $ 600 million stadium by deception Miami-Dade commissioners of the Financial Team, finished product is something to see. Most ballparks do not represent their city. Marlins park projects clearly Miami.
The famous South Beach bar is convenient for the left field wall, offering a swimming pool, umbrella drinks and salsa. Nearby is a sculpture of the future house, a ball of marlin, gulls and flamingos, which broke within 30 seconds of motion, when the mad Marlins player hits a home run. Mango salad on a hot dog as the color palette, like a holiday sculptures, straw yellow, and orange and green and blue.
There is a visual unity that Loria, an art dealer by profession, no doubt, contributed.
Each of the MLB Commissioner Bud Selig new Marlins manager Ozzie Guillen, city officials estimated that the finished product.
"Beautiful, and it cost a lot of money," said Gillen, who is rarely short.
Selig is known touring Loria. Marlins pocket all the money, income distribution, that MLB Loria to spend on salaries for other owners and the players union did not complain. Lauria said that the poor and the county refused to open its books, and the District has approved more than $ 350 million of public funds for the stadium. By the time the bonds are repaid in 40 years, the cost to taxpayers has exceeded $ 2 billion.
All proceeds go to the stadium Marlins, paid $ 2.3 million in rent each year.
Selig not to cough on Wednesday, when he said:. "In five years you will not find those who are against it," His experience shows that the construction field the ball hard, dirty, "trauma," he said, and see the Cathedral of the other games in the spring area for a long time indifferent to his team can not be considered a victory.
In fact, he assured all, there is enough money to go around - MLB revenue is expected to reach $ 8 billion this year - do not worry about little things.
"This park is the difference?" Selig asked rhetorically. " Huge. Enormous stress. "
The task of Loria will keep the crowd dazzled and go to Little Havana to participate in the games. Play at a much irregularity, Marlins averaged only 16,000 fans in the game when they won the World Series in 2003. Participation in an average of about 12,000 in the last three years, an estimated 50 percent of deleting the figure declared. An increase in income for the local television will not bail them out - a contract with Fox Sports Florida will continue until 2020.
"We must win," Guillen said with a shrug. "People come when the team wins. This is what Miami."
Guillen presence will help. He is bilingual, and brisk in the largest city in the Spanish-language baseball. Electronic boards menu dealership turn Spanish into English, and Guillen is like one of the panels, which makes pre-match interview in English, then Spanish, then English, then Spanish, sprinkling of profanity, as jalapeno slices.
As game time approached, the display shows a young woman in a boat with a huge banner with the Marlins "logo and the race right on Miami Beach. Then, hop, the center field fence open and she was there in the flesh, running across the field. It was part of the concept of intelligent Loria stage merger of water and land.
Then run the sculpture house was activated only once all night. He could not go back weeks, because the Marlins park plays an important, Citi Field and Petco Park is great. Cleaning striker Giancarlo Stanton - it was Mike Stanton, Marlins, as if the novelty was not enough - fly in center field twice on the staff, which would have been home runs in most other major league stadiums.
"I think it's a great stadium," said Lohse. "Forward will tell you otherwise."
Fans will vote that breaks the connection. Meanwhile, the park will be used for other functions, baseball, as often as possible to maximize revenue. In fact, he already has. The Cardinals' Carlos Beltran scored the first run, but it was not the first to circle the grounds.
Martha Stewart, meanwhile, touched them all assembled leaders and celebrities at the stadium in February. Food stations were set up in each database, and Stewart was accompanied by his wife Loria, Julia, who wrote a cookbook.
Corporate Board meetings will be held in the halls. The stadium will be converted to exhibition conference center. Concerts. Someone with money to burn the possibility of leasing the land for a pickup game with friends: the base rate is $ 15,000, and additions such as an advertiser, the form, use the club house and a home run sculpture Bloop single to activate after the tab could rise to six figures .
"It will be a place for people, starting with baseball, but for other reasons as well as" Marlins operations executive said Claude Delorme.
It is hard to imagine the stage reached on how the people in Washington Park. This is a good place to spend an evening. This cozy, with a capacity less than 37,000, it is convenient, too. Arizona, among other things, that they want their parks could be reduced through the park Marlins.
At the opening of the noise was over, and that can benefit the players. Marlins have a solid list of the National League, which has no favorite. And that's not all opposing pitcher will bring peace of mind and extraordinary Lohse veteran team did that night, the performance, which served as a reminder of what surrounds the game is not a game, regardless of the color and the new.
