media INFORMATION GUIDELINES

PRESS CLUB (MEDIA DINING): After entering through Gate 3, proceed to your left to the elevators
located at the Red Awning. Take the elevator up to the Club Level (number 4), make a right out of
the elevator and proceed through the glass doors and into the Press Club. Prior to each home game,
media with season, MLB, or single game credentials are welcome to dine in the Press Club. There
will be a $12.00 fee charged for each meal. Refreshments are also available during the game through
the seventh inning. Press Club usage is limited to those with proper credentials. It is impossible to
accommodate family members, friends or guests. NO ONE UNDER 18 years of age will be permitted
in the Press Club. As a professional courtesy, we ask that you dress in appropriate business attire. Any
abuse of these privileges may cause forfeiture of credentials.
The Press Club will also serve as an overflow press working area.
Media Guidelines
CLUBHOUSE AND FIELD ACCESS FROM CLUB LEVEL: Ramp #5, located on the first base side of the
Club Level by the escalator at section 335 can be used for Field/Clubhouse access via the stairwell. The
Angels clubhouse is open 3-1/2 hours prior to game time and will remain open until one hour before
game time. Both clubhouses will also open approximately 10 minutes following the conclusion of the
game. The visiting clubhouse is governed by the visiting club. The Umpires Dressing Room is off-limits
to the media. If a comment or interpretation from the umpire crew chief is needed, a pool reporter
may be assigned.
INTERVIEW ROOM: Following each home game, the Angels manager is scheduled to meet with the
media approximately 10 minutes after the final out in the club’s interview room. Media wishing to
participate should enter through the doors directly across from the clubhouse elevators.
PHOTOGRAPHY: Photo credentials are issued in the same manner as media credentials. Due to limited
photo locations, it is impossible to allow freelance photographers or photo wire services access unless
assigned by a legitimate newsgathering agency.
INTERVIEWS: Requests for interviews needing advance preparation or special accommodation by an
Angels player or staff member are to be directed to the Angels Communications Department. This
includes all live television interviews for pre-game and post-game as well as all on-field requests prior
to batting practice.
NO AUTOGRAPHS: ANY MEMBER OF THE MEDIA REQUESTING AUTOGRAPHS OR PERSONAL
PHOTOGRAPHS FROM PLAYERS OR COACHES WILL HAVE PRESS ACCESS REVOKED.
