Audio and/or Visual: Citi Field Photo Tour

Tintoretto’s chiaroscuro and bursts of color are unmistakable.

Kerel Cooper of Mets blog On the Black has recently shared with the public some photos from his tour of Citi Field.

The photo tour, it must be said, is an important genre. For those of us who self-identify as “indoorsman,” it allows us to experience the world without having to, you know, experience the world.

Having said that — and with all due respect to Cooper — there are some images that are conspicuous by their absence. Images such as:

• Paul DePodesta installing Linux on all the front office computers.
• Paul DePodesta convincing the stadium operations department to display WAR on the scoreboard.
• Paul DePodesta — uh, I don’t know. Paul DePodesta’s a nerd, is the point I’m trying to make.
