Ok, here's the deal. I was there this time. The game stunk and I was sad. There ya go.
Put a fork in Guzzy, he's done for now. Nook got hurt first game of the season, hope that's not going to be a regular thing for him. Our ace didn't ace much. Young was terrific. Loved Zimmerman's triple. Church made a GREAT snag, Zimmerman pulled off an excellent shot! (fell on his bum while catching a short infield pop and still tossed it to 1st throwing the guy out)
Sweet tea in the food court is great! But the concession lines were far too long! Some *itch was busting on me in the ladies room about the line out the door and me coming in the other side. That really pissed me off! I wanted to "bless" her out so bad! She was probably the class tattle tale in elementary school! Now she's in her mid 40's and looks like she's spent too many hours in the sun and is aging horribly. Come back to me in another 10 and I'll still look better! Some fans were obnoxious, but what else is new. Wasnt' thrilled w/ Fenty tossing out an opening pitch. We have a team, no thanks to him and he gets to toss out a ball???!!!Â
On the up side, Got a hat from Chico, turned around and saw Church, so I introduced myself as "kimnat from the boards". He was so nice but busy handing out hats. Saw the Rushmore Four and my dad and I jumped in front of them while my sister took a pic. We about flipped to see Teddy R. swooping in from the roof of RFK during their race. That was wild! You couldn't pay me enough! Weather was beautiful. Seeing Mickey Vernon toss out one of the ceremonial first pitches was super cool!
Overall, tough game for a home season opener. But hey, at least it's baseball season again!Â
