My Very First Detroit Tigers Baseball Game

OMG I’m so in love. I’ve always liked Detorit Tigers baseball and have watched games on TV periodically since I was a little girl. Watching on TV and being at a game in person are two totally different experiences!

Very First Detroit Tigers Baseball Game Experience:

Friday July 24th for the very first time ever I experienced a Tigers game in person. And it ROCKED! I was in awe of Comerica Park and how big it was…and how many people were there!

Here’s a Few Pics:

Fireworks After the Game:
Oh I have NEVER seen a firework display like the one they gave us after the game. Wowsers did it ever rock! I just figured out I could take videos with my digital cam so I took about 3 minutes worth of video of the ending of the fireworks. It was great! And of course for whatever reason when I put in the embed code from YouTube it doesn’t work on here so if you’d like to check out the video you can view it here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nQAGqFSNUJs.

Red Sox vs Tigers

The Detroit Tigers are playing tonight against the Boston Red Sox. They are playing at CoMerica park, the Tiger’s ‘home turf’. Not surprisingly the Tigers are losing. It may not be surprising but it’s disappointing! I’d like to see them win some more. Right now they have lost 18 and won 14. A couple of my fave players for the Tigers are Placido Polanco (2nd baseman), Ivan Rodriguez (catcher) and Jeremy Bonderman (pitcher).

I like the Red Sox too so it’s ok they are winning…LOL! The Red Sox have won 20 and lost 13 so far. As for the Red Sox my fave players are Josh Beckett (pitcher), Jacoby Ellsbury (center field) and Jason Varitek (catcher).

The final score for the game was Red Sox 6, Tigers 3. Yeah Red Sox! The Tigers really need to step up their game a little. I think all the fans are getting tired of seeing them lose all the time.

I love baseball! I would like to go to a Tigers game this summer but it’s not gonna happen, too many other things going on and there is no way my car would make it that far…LOL! So I’ll settle for watching it on TV and going to the Traverse City Beach Bums games. The Beach Bums are fun to watch and they are only an hour away and with Nicole & Dennis living in Traverse City I always have the option of crashing at their place if I don’t want to drive back home after the game.

Now I just have to learn the ‘jist’ of football. I’m so clueless when it comes to this sport but yet I like watching it. Doesn’t make any sense to me. About the only thing I understand about this sport is touchdown. I’m totally clueless when it comes to what all the downs mean, blah, blah, blah.

Tell Me Thursday

Today’s Tell Me Thursday behind yesterday’s Wordless Wednesday isn’t anything super exciting and it certainly isn’t a ‘wow’ factor or anything along those lines but seems how my digital camera has died I have to use old pictures and I came across the one I used and decided it was cute enough to post.

The picture was taken last summer, 2007, when I took my son Caleb (he’s the one on the left) and his friend Isaac (the one on the right in the pic) to a Traverse City Beach Bums Game. The mascot that Caleb and Isaac are with is Sunburn. The boys had fun, I had fun and I was with my dad, his girlfriend, my sister & another girl. It was so much fun!!!!
