Also great for groups such as boy or girl scouts. My son camped here one night as well, it was secure and safe.Stadium is clean and well maintained. Parking isn't far, and all seats are good seats.Prices are fantastic, and if you're lucky, you can see a recovering NY Yankee play here as well before they head back to the MLB after an injury.
Nice place to see a game. Not a bad seat in the house. Plenty of parking and an easy commute.It beats traveling to the Bronx and spending an arm/leg... The Food bites. In todays era you need some good food, not the standard burger , dogs & sausage. At least they have some decent beer taps.Get with it....
the staten island yankees occupy richmond county ballpark, not as if anybody cares... the night we attended we counted perhaps 700 living souls, but the team announced attendance at 2,200, so obviously 1,500 were disguised as empty seats... the price, $15, is outrageous for this level ball and perhaps accounts for the civic disinterest, come by when wagner college is playing and get the same spectacular view for one-third the price... concessions quite bland except for the beach haus pilsner and the knish and hot dog at the kosher stand... level of play, very sloppy... ah, but the view, of new york's harbor and skyline, the frequently passing staten island ferries (a fairish walk from right field) and, on occasion, container ships that seem to have dropped from outer space... the crossing on the staten island ferry is free... the cost of this rather even things out... staff fairly friendly and accommodating although the folks at the admissions gate had a stern and bossy attitude, first holding us out, then demanding that we enter quickly... that's new york, I guess...
The park is a good size and just steps away from the Memorial which is just steps away from the Ferry Termianal. Prices are low and there is an unobstructed view all the way around. It is very loud and there are always fireworks when they win, which is quite often
Ok I will admit I am a huge ballpark chaser and have been to dozens and dozens of stadiums, so I see things with a different lens. I also need handicapped seating usually at the ballpark and I found the seating at RCBB to be great in terms of sightlines and ease of access. The only problem is the plastic molded back seats that are attached to bleacher benches are quite uncomfortable. A padded folding chair would be a huge improvement. The food at the park is underwhelming and the burger I had was terrible. The lettuce and tomato put on a burger and sitting under a heat lamp is not a reciepe for success. This is my hometown ballpark and while I hate the NY Yankees, I enjoy their Staten Island little brothers.
The view alone of Manhattan from the ballpark is worth the trip. If you're lucky, you'll catch a departing cruise ship which appears to sail right thru the outfield as it exits NY harbor. A good place to catch upcoming NY Yankee prospects, and also Yankee stars who may be rehabbing from injury there. It's a short walk from the ferry. Very safe and family friendly.
This was a first time visit for two of my grand-daughters. They can't wait to go back. My husband and son enjoyed the game while my grands enjoyed the give-always. We all received baseball caps, choice of two different baseball jerseys, All-you-can-eat hot dogs, burgers, soda, water and chips. In addition, they received some soft balls and a walk around the bases after the game. That night there was also a fireworks display. Needless to say we were all happy and all for $15 per person! You can't beat that for a family night out but if you can please tell me where!
The Ballpark is just a short walk from the Staten Island Ferry Terminal on the Staten Island side. It's filled with excitement, food and so much fun if you like baseball and watching the crowd. There are single tickets and specials that include your ticket and food vouchers for typical baseball park food--hot dogs, hamburgers, soda, beer, popcorn, ice cream and more. Come to the RC Bank Ballpark and have a terrific evening. Bring your friends and family. It's a place to remember to go to year after year. Special seating is available for wheelchairs and other handicap vehicles and it's not bad either. Plenty of restrooms and concession stands to get food and drinks; snacks and ice cream. We had a fabulous time!!!! Get seating under the canopy as the sun can get very hot.
One of a kind experience. Where else can you catch a foul ball, drink beer and see the Statue of Liberty and the Manhattan skyline at the same time? There weren't many folks there on a HOT summer Sunday, but those who were had a great time. Went to Pier 79 Pizza after, also great, but not on here yet, I guess...
Easy to get to by Ferry or train. Great ballpark to see a minor league baseball game (Staten Island Yankees). Family friendly environment. Whether you're local or visiting NYC, you have to catch a ball game here.
