Padres vs. Cubs, 3-13-08

No need to recap as Al will do that, just wanted to post a couple of pics from today

BallHawk was also there, it was nice to finally meet you, Ken.

I left as I always do in the 8th inning so I didn't see the Cubs pull out the win.

Marquis pitched fine, Marshall did as well, he settled in after the HR he gave up.

Maddux was typical Maddux.

Fuld and Fukudome each made great catches against the wall in the same innning.

A view from the LF berm/lawn...

Al, Miriam and friend...

So since Al is wearing "the shirt"
Does this count as a shirt diary or does another need to be created?

And where is the latest Roberts diary!?!?!

"Friend"...

Thanks for the photos + question
Nice photos-- thanks.

Question: why do you "always" leave in the 8th inning?

To beat the traffic out of there
and the traffic on my way home. I live about 15 mins south of the stadium, but there are a ton of lights. If I stay later it seems like I hit every red light.

Imposing physique?
Thanks for your nice way saying what my Mother always said when describing me - "He's a husky kid." LOL

As you have noticed, I haven't skipped many meals in my life!
