A Sweltering Evening at the Old Ball Game

Susan got us tickets to this evening’s Texas League tilt between the visiting San Antonio Missions and our “hometown” Frisco RoughRiders.

The temperature at first pitch was around 103, and it’s still probably 99 in the shade as I sit here in the left field bleachers in the 2nd inning.

One of the Missions hit a home run last inning that landed three rows right in front of me. It landed so hard that it bounced off the first row seat right back onto the field.

The highlight of the evening was getting to take Randy and Brian down on the field before the game. They got their picture taken with a pitcher named Michael Schlact, and we walked right past hot SS prospect Elvis Andrus.

Anyway, the iPhone is starting to melt in my hand, so I’d better go.
