I think I'd like to change my best pitcher answer to Nolan Ryan.

Good move

This is why he didn't immediately come to mind. I was at this game:

Location: Northeastern Pennsylvania
Stadiums visited: 11 - Sun Trust Park, Turner Field, Veterans Stadium, Citizens Bank Park, Shea Stadium, PNC Park, Wrigley Field, Camden Yards, Jacob's Field, New Yankee Stadium, US Cellular Field.
Cities visited: 7
States visited: 6
Miles traveled: ?
Favorite stadium: Hopefully Sun Trust Park
Worst stadium: Shea Stadium
Most games you’ve attended in one season: 4
Best position player you’ve seen: Chipper Jones (Ripken, Jeter and Piazza are the only other HoFers. Walker, Howard, Rollins, McCutchen and Bryant are the only other MVPs)
Best pitcher you’ve seen: Greg? Maddux (on one occasion Vs. Kerry Wood in 1998. That was the best pitching matchup that i've seen.)
Best fans: Nothing really stands out.
Most annoying fans: Phillies fans. I was at a Phillies v Pirates game and a few drunk fans were relentless to a Pirates dad and young son.
Your favorite team: Atlanta Braves
Favorite rivalry: Braves v Mets of the late 90s / early 2000s was fun. I was at that Mets instant classic game where they had a large comeback - it was one the first games in Shea following Rocker's anti NY rant.
Seen your team win a World Series?: In person? No. I turned down tickets to Game 4 in 1999.
Visited the Hall of Fame?: Not the museum.
Seen a Hall of Fame induction ceremony?: Yes - Maddux, Glavine and Cox. And Torre, LaRussa and Thomas
What would your at-bat walk up music be?: I would go crazy if I had to hear the same song 300 times

I'm officially starting my quest to see games in all 30 stadiums. I'll try to take one trip per season. I'm in Atlanta right now. I'm hoping for an early season road trip to San Diego in 2018.


How about a WhatIf theme of players you've seen in person?

For a guy with a Braves logo as an avatar...

Spoiler: show
I am surprised 4 games is your most in one season
