City Kayak

AT&T Park is so close to San Francisco Bay that home runs hit to right field splash down in McCovey Cove. When the Giants play, people in the know rent kayaks on Pier 40 right by the park and paddle in the cove for a one-of-a-kind game experience. A whole fleet shows up—for big games there are so many you could walk across the cove on them. A lot of boaters take a radio or even a TV out on the water, but Major League Baseball’s At Bat app is really the best way to follow the game. It has all sorts of options—you can listen to it or follow it in summary form. They even show each pitch in a graphic format.
