Take Me Out to the Ballgame

It was a cooler day on Tuesday and D-man  and I had tickets to a spring training game. As the stadiums were at limited capacity, the tickets were quite expensive. So, we ended up at a stadium 45 minutes away from the house. It started to really drizzle when we got there, but fortunately, it quickly stopped and we only had to deal with cool weather (D-man was happy that I threw his sweatshirt in). 

We walked around the stadium, we had hot dogs and we researched and learned a lot about minor league baseball (and how these players are grossly underpaid). 

We sat right behind the bullpens and D-man for a ball and we saw several home runs. After the game, I drove D-man to meet his friends at the Stand (36th best burger in the nation according to some source). He hung out with them for the evening - getting food, hanging in our pool and playing some poker. Nice for him to have some time with his friends for spring break. 

Before we took off for the game, we dropped T-man and Marshall off in old town Scottsdale for some ice cream and walking around. They enjoyed a nice afternoon checking out the town, getting takeout for lunch and laser tag before we had burgers on the grill for dinner. Nice that our place is within walking distance of things. 

Brrrrr

Even though we were at Indians field, we were cheering for the SF Giants 

Baseball!
