This 'n' that

Above: Placed second in an online MTT today for a small cash. Ran J-J into aces which crippled me. Typical online cooler. I had plenty of good hands, too, so can't complain.

Above: A day at the ballpark last Sunday. Tampa Bay Rays played the New York Yankees. I had good seats for a change, Row G. (Click on images to enlarge. Press escape to return.)

Above: Baseball appeals to all ages and both genders.

Above: NY Yankee pitcher Masahara Tanaka warms up. I know Tampa is a light-hitting team, but he didn't even work up a sweat pitching seven innings, allowing two hits and no runs. Tropicana Field doesn't have a "real" bull pen -- pitchers stand along the side to warm up.

Above: The Rays' fans booed Alex Rodriguez unmercifully. For his first at bat, he struck out swinging at a ball in the dirt -- the fans loved it.

  1. Looks like you're having a good time and making a little money, too. I'm wondering who took your picture, though.

  2. One of my favorite pleasures is getting to Camden Yards a bit early on a Sunday, and watching the starters warm up in the pen from just a few feet away. Such a great perspective. Must have been cool seeing Tanaka like that.

  3. At least you were not at the House of Evil in St. Louis. If you are now rooting for Tampa Bay, congratulations for abandoning your old team. : o )

  5. Mojo: I deleted our comment, as you may notice.... Answer is, meh . . . not overly. But also don't want to encourage investigation that could lead to something like that . . .
