Each year people make resolutions, typically to better themselves and their lives. Self-improvement goals are great, but I prefer to make resolutions related to traveling. Specifically, I make ballpark travel resolutions, as I continue my quest to see more places by visiting baseball stadiums. Without further ado, here are my 2021 ballpark travel resolutions. Resolution #1: In 2021, I resolve to see all five @NPB teams in Greater Tokyo (@Chiba_Lotte, @lions_official, @swallowspr, @TokyoGiants, and @ydb_yokohama) play at home. #PlayBall #NewYearsResolutions #GoTokyo #StevenExploresTokyo — Steven Ericson (@StevenOnTheMove) January 1, 2021 In 2019 and 2020, I resolved to see all of the Nippon Professional Baseball (NPB) teams in Greater Tokyo.

Reviewing my 2020 ballpark travel resolutions
As the final week of this no good, rotten year comes to a close, it is time to review my 2020 ballpark travel resolutions.

Reviewing my 2019 ballpark resolutions
For several years now I have made New Year’s resolutions to visit ballparks in the coming year. Most of my goals are to visit new Minor League Baseball stadiums, but my resolutions are not exclusive to MiLB parks. Each year I review my resolutions and assess how successful I was in fulfilling them. So, here’s how I did with my 2019 ballpark travel resolutions. Resolution #1: In 2019, I resolve to see all three @TravelOregon #MiLB teams (@EugeneEmeralds, @HillsboroHops, & @SKVolcanoes) play at home. #PlayBall #NewYearsResolutions — Steven Ericson (@StevenOnTheMove) January 1, 2019 Last year my wife Katie started a program for an additional certification related to her job.
