Every time we go to see a Quakes game, we come home with some new memory. Last night we went out with the HMC Summer Chemistry Research group, and if you ever want to go when parking and crowds are no issue, go on a Monday night. I was concerned that the game would not be very fun since there were so few people in attendance, but we really had a great time.
Last night we saw a number of scouts with their radar guns and stopwatches sitting right in front of us (and right behind home plate). I guess that's one way to fill a section.
I was not fortunate enough to get a photo of the HMC students who got to go on the field during the 7th inning stretch and hold some sign during the singing of Take Me Out to the Ballgame. They were on and off the field so quickly that I didn't get over behind the dugout quickly enough.
We had a huge chicken burrito.
The woman in front of us was having a great time (and ate three huge hot dogs). She would turn around occasionally to comment on something we said that she found particularly amusing. The game was actually pretty close, and when the Quakes started to tie it up, she would jump up and down and turn around to high-five us. Of course, she went ballistic when the Quakes hit a the ball for a walk-off run, and everyone got high-fives. So much for worrying about a boring game!
