Labor day can mean many things for people, whether it is a patriotic holiday or the end of the summer. For baseball fans, it is the time when playoff contention is heating up and Californians know about the series between the Los Angeles Angels and the Oakland A's. The two and only California American League teams must battle it out every year to see if they make it into the post season.
Regardless of if the teams are in contention, the game always proves to be an exciting rivalry. Many games during this time of year have special give away days or even patriotic celebrations before, during and at the end of the games. The warm California days and nights of a California summer coming to a close can be a great cap to any summer before returning to work or back to school.
It is an electric experience to be at Edison Field with 60,000 people all rooting for teams and individual players. The Los Angeles setting puts baseball fans in close proximity to other area attractions such as
Disneyland and Knott's Berry Farm. If wanting to venture further, downtown Los Angeles and
Hollywood are also within a short driving distance. This also means lodging in the area is also easy to find. It is very easy to enjoy the amusement parks by day and relax to a all California American League rivalry by night.
Whether driving or flying into the area, local airports and freeway access make it very easy to navigate through the city and efficiently land at the desired destination. Enjoy a hot dog, sing all the ballpark favorites and enjoy a ballgame. Don't forget a glove.
