Opening day at the Mets new stadium, Citi Field, isn’t for another week but they’ve opened the stadium up for previews via exhibition games. These were taken during the second of two exhibition games against the Boston Red Sox. First up is the main entry way for most fans – the Jackie Robinson Rotunda behind home plate.

The “nine values” Jackie Robinson embodied as articulated by his daughter and Foundation Vice Chair, Sharon Robinson. Yes, one is missing.

Robinson’s number 42, retired throughout baseball.

Mr. Met thanks you for coming out to the ballpark.

Nice wide staircases – no more interminable ramps for the most part.

Fans make their way into the rotunda, scanning their own ticket for entry.
