Forget about going to see the Rays at Tropicana, baseball indoors just ain't right. Went to see the Phillies in Clearwater and had a great day; the city park right next to the Phillies park is named for Joe D. Spring training and minor league games are a lot of fun.
On the drive back to CA last May we stopped in Denver to visit our daughter and grandkids. Our son-in-law is on the Denver PD and sometimes works the baseball games; he got us tics and took us to a game and parked in the players lot. In about the 7th inning my wife got hit by a foul ball. We were sitting about 15 rows from the field near shallow left field, she caught the ball as it bounced off her chin - it had bounced around the fans and seats before it got to her. Ball park people were there in an instant and took her for a medical check up and had her sign an injury claim waiver.
