Yea, it was cold, and the crowd was thin... had I gone just to take pictures I would have been in one of those close up empty seats.

The realities of having a 4 year old, and no other adult, can be limiting. I was not there to take pictures, I was there to see a game with the little one.

Remember - unless you are a journalist, the first priority is to experience a moment, then capture it. It's about being there, and secondly getting a good picture. Besides tickets are only $7 bucks... I'll go back alone and (try to) get the killer shot.

Here is the 4 year old who "ruined" the photo op at the game (she is obviously quite used to the camera)

thanks, yea he was playing that night (clemence).

It is a very nice park, designed by the same firm that did the big league park (jacob's field) just a few miles down the street.

Of course it bunkrupted the city that built it... but that is another story.
