Summer Ball

On a summer-fun high, we decided in the morning to hit an evening Giants game.  I love summer!

We had great seats. Marco’s eyes were bright seeing his favorite players from TV and, of course, Lou Seal.  He couldn’t believe his good fortune that he got to eat a hot dog, peanuts and cracker jacks and spent the first part of the game tracking the cotton candy guy.  We told him he could choose a treat in the fourth inning and he was pretty panicked they’d run out of the four color sugar bomb that’s made for four 5-year olds.  Alas, they had enough for him. 

He was very disappointed that he didn’t catch a foul ball, but was thrilled that he was tall enough to slide the Big Guzzler! 
 
We spent an inning riding all the slides and our last two innings in the bleachers.  Always a man of the people, I think he preferred the bleachers because of all the yelling and the batters would “for sure hit a home run to the bleachers.”

Cold, windy, down by five runs, 10:30 p.m. and the top of the 9th…. we packed it in.  “Why aren’t we staying until the end?”  Good fan. 

 Here’s the proof:
