Not everyone enjoys a bag of peanuts or a simple hot dog when watching Mike Trout hit a home run. And sometimes, our favorite player’s name on our jersey just isn’t enough—we want it customized. Also, “pregaming” is a skill that requires careful planning. Plan your perfect baseball game experience with our guide to Angel Stadium of Anaheim—discover where to eat, where to shop and where to pregame this season.
