Recently a woman named Sara Yarborough Chang posted to a group of fellow stadium chasers, who attempt to visit all 30 ball parks in America, posted her success story that she was able to visit all 30 ball parks, which ended on June 22 when she finally visited Comerica Park in Detroit to watch the New York Yankees take on the Tigers.

Unfortunately, for her, the Tigers took the win, but she came out the true winner as the Detroit Tigers mascot, Paws, came up and gave her a special gift of an autographed baseball, congratulating her for 30 ball parks visited and gave her a big hug. It was a moment she truly cherished as she shared on the Facebook page:

Tonight I visited my 30th ballpark in Detroit. Comerica Park was such a wonderful ballpark even though my Yankees lost. My friend even got Paws to give me a baseball to celebrate the completion of my journey! I was so shocked I burst into tears. I can't believe I have been to all 30 MLB stadiums!

Many of the people in the comments sang both her and Comerica Park's praises:

As a Tigers fan, Comerica is a great park to end on. I think Detroit has the best of both worlds where we typically stink enough that nobody gets too crazy, but we still have a nice stadium that isn’t too terribly hard to get into/out of. It’s a lot like my personal favorite, Wrigley Field, in that way.
