Take a look at this photo from 2005 taken from the top of the St. Louis Arch. The stadium the Rangers are playing in now was under construction at that time right next to the circular stadium that would soon be torn down. But look how close they are. In fact, that circular stadium even protrudes into what looks to be left field of the new stadium. I guess they built as much as they could, blew up the old stadium, and finished the new.
Edit: And how it looks before Game #2

When they were building new Busch there was a website that showed the construction site 24/7 for a couple of years. Only a couple of days after the last home game was played at old Busch they started bringing the house that Augie built down. As a life-long Cardinal fan it made my baseball weanie go flying to see the Redbirds' gorgeous new park go up.
(I've also been a Rangers fan since the early 80's--even worked for the team at the old Arlington Stadium one summer. This series has made me more conflicted than a WK/Rage karaoke sing-off.)
"The victim of yesterday afternoon’s fatal crash on Texas 114 just west of Paradise was Jose Hipolito Martinez-Maldonado, 45, of River Oaks." Per Wise Co Messupper.
Imma take a wild guess- He mighta been Messkin.
1:24, Thanks for clearing that up for us. I heard a rumor his name was Paco Humberto Guissepe-Maldonado, 45, of Guadalajara.
