Principal Park sits on a point of land at the confluence of the Des Moines and Raccoon rivers. It is a delightful little ballpark with great sight lines and comfortable seating. The beautiful Iowa State Capital can be seen over the center field fence and the Des Moines skyline can be seen from the first base side seats. Principal, formally known as Sec Taylor Stadium, is the home to the Iowa Cubs, the AAA franchise of the Chicago Cubs.
I was in Des Moines on business earlier in the week and decided to take in the Tuesday game against the Storm Chasers.
