Take Me Out to the Ball Game!

Yesterday, we met Mike, Kathi, and Aunt Mary for lunch and then a Mariners baseball game. Neither of us are crazy about baseball, and we’d never even been to a Grizzlies game! But we wanted to spend time with them, and were curious to see the SAFECO venue.

The Mariners played the Oakland A’s.

We had a blast! The game was a cliff hanger. They tied twice, and the A’s eventually won at the 10th inning. The Mariners’ pitcher pitched 6 straight balls and ended up walking someone to home plate! Lynn explained the strategy of both teams and I found it interesting.

The day was an epic WIN! We will definitely go to more Mariners games, and will think twice when asked to go to a baseball game in the future.

Me, Lynn, Kathi, and Aunt Mary at the top of SAFECO stadium. What a venue. We were amazed. We didn’t see how there could be a bad seat in the stadium, and there is a retractable roof in case it rains. And, Aunt Mary was amazing. At the age of 80, she climbed 5-6 flights of stairs with ease!
