I drove up to Camden Yards today, about 40 miles from my house, to watch the game.  I took my camera and lucked into some pretty good photos including the pitch that Travis hit for the grand slam.  I uploaded them here http://tinyurl.com/2qhuf2

I've been trying to get the hang of sports photography for a year or so. I'm getting better but what I really need is a 375 pound biker friend with bad teeth and worse hygiene to sit next to me and clear the fans away when there's an exciting play.

Today's game was about as good as it gets. Perfect weather, great seats, great Indians pitching, and our bats finally exploded in the late innings.  I feel some of my antagonism from last year beginning to melt.  I might even go so far as to say Wedge seems to be maturing into a decent manager.  I might.
