For those of you not going to the aquarium, Friday (www.ticketmaster.com/cgi/outsider.plx?CAMEFROM=MLBBRAVES-SCHEDULE&GOTO=http://www.ticketmaster.com/event/0E004052C784AB79/&brand=none', 'home'));) night at 7:30, the Braves are playing the Los Angeles Dodgers. They also play the Dodgers on Saturday afternoon (not a good time) and Sunday (www.ticketmaster.com/cgi/outsider.plx?CAMEFROM=MLBBRAVES-SCHEDULE&GOTO=http://www.ticketmaster.com/event/0E004052C8CCAED8/&brand=none', 'home'));") afternoon at 1:35 for those of you hanging around Atlanta until Monday.
Many "First" people have attended the games over the past 4 years. I would suggest reasonably ($12-$16) priced tickets in upper sections 402-416 (great view) but try to get row 10 or lower. The afternoon / evening sun will not be in your eyes on this side of the stadium. The Dodgers series are the Braves next home games so I would purchase your tickets asap.
Also, there are "all you can eat sections (http://atlanta.braves.mlb.com/atl/ticketing/ayce.jsp)" priced from $30-$70.
Turner Field was home to the 1996 Olympic track & field, opening & closing ceremonies and and is a great place to watch a ballgame.
While the Marta rail service does not go to Turner Field, you can ride the train to Five Points and transfer to the Braves Shuttle Bus (http://www.itsmarta.com/getthere/braves.htm).
Here (http://www.mapquest.com/maps/CNN+Center:Atlanta+GA/turner+field:Atlanta+GA/#a/maps/l:CNN+Ctr:190+Marietta+St+NW:Atlanta:GA:30303:US:3 3.758003:-84.3936:address:/l:Turner+Field:755+Hank+Aaron+Dr+SW:Atlanta:GA:303 15:US:33.735599:-84.38787:address:/m::11:33.746802:-84.390639:0::/io:1:::::f:EN:m:/e) are some basic directions from CNN Center to Turner Field by Mapquest.
