Foul ball!

Posted by Walt (Scarborough, Canada) on 10 August 2007 in Sport & Recreation and Portfolio.

I feel that ump may just have a headache coming on...

It was our 7th wedding anniversary on Sunday, and my wife and I took our daughter to her first baseball game (she's 4 today). She lasted an inning before needing a break, but settled down nicely with a bag of popcorn and actually managed to make it to the end.

We had great seats - we were 4 rows behind the Blue Jay dugout!

great sports capture. my seats at the mets game are always a lot higher up and tougher to take pictures

@Nick Passantino: Oh, don't get me wrong - these aren't my seats - this was a one shot gift. :) Very nice seats, though - I'd take them again if offered (hint, hint, Aunt!)
