McCoy Stadium - Home of the Pawsox!

McCoy Stadium
After visiting Fenway Park Sunday afternoon, Royalty made a pit stop on the way home to Pawtucket, Rhode Island which is 50 miles from Boston.

We went to see a minor league game between the Norfolk Tides the Triple A affiliate of the Baltimore Orioles and the Pawtucket Red Sox aka the Pawsox.

The Pawsox wound up winning the game, 5-4!

As for the ballpark, it's a very nice place to watch a game.

Around 5 years ago the ballpark under went some renovations to get it up to Triple A standards.

The original backstop and seating area remain intact.

They expanded the seating area and they added additional seats include lawn seating in the outfield which is very popular in the minor leagues.

If you happen to be passing through Rhode Island you may want to get off in Pawtucket which is right outside of Providence.
