Note: Pepsi Porch, the Apple, etc., at Citi Field

New Stadium Insider has a photo up of a section of seats in Citi Field that have an obstructed view.

To me, it looks like it’s just those last few rows – but, still, it appears any one sitting in these seats will lose the ball on a high pop up.

By the way, I have been told by a few people that the New York Post will soon release a story exposing all sorts of flaws in Citi Field, which, considering the source, is not at all surprising.

PepsiSignTo check out the latest photos from inside Citi Field, check out Island Extreme’s photo gallery, here, on Webshots.

The image in this post is of the giant Pepsi Cola sign that has been installed above the right-field porch.

My friends at Pepsi tell me the entire right-field porch will actually be sponsored and called The Pepsi Porch.  The sign in this picture is inspired by the one in Long Island City.  The area will have tables and chairs above the seated section and will serve antique Pepsi products, whatever that means.

Speaking of Island Extreme, who I’m starting to think lives inside Citi Field, he took the following pictures, here, and video, here, from inside the cement cannister that will house the new Home Run Apple.

Lastly, I keep getting questions about where the original Home Run Apple will be.  According to the team, eyewitnesses and pictures, the original Apple has been installed in the Bullpen Plaza, which is open to the public behind the bullpens, at Citi Field.
