An embarrassment of riches.

Guess who won the Rogers “Suite Deal” for August 31?!!! Maybe I should start buying 50-50 tickets…. Sorry about the blogging delays of late, there’s just been a lot of running around along with the baseball itself. The stint over at Out of Left Field is done; it was a different style of blogging, but I adapted and had a good time with it. It does take a lot of time though - I have no idea how Neate does it, no idea at all.
Quick thoughts from the most recent homestand - nice wins yesterday and today, both saves picked up by proud new Dad Brian Sanches. Way to go, Brian! We had a good time on Sunday, before, during and after the game. I dropped “the boy” off at 10 for his bat-boy duties, went home, picked up everyone else, came back, watched a closely pitched, tight ballgame and then settled in for the booster club’s barbecue while we waited for Zak to finish up. Had another interesting conversation with blog favorite, Gary Burnham, who, according to Doris, looks much younger when he’s in civvies. It’s nice to have the chance to get some feedback from the players, as well as the opportunity to let them know how much they’re appreciated.
The world record attempt fell short this year, due entirely to the inability of the locals to maintain something resembling an attention span. I’m reticent to call people out, especially since more than 3,000 of them showed up, but for heaven’s sake people, would another 10 minutes kill ya’?
More to come, with some photos….
