Tomorrow - Looks like I've got the good fortune of joining my college chum Ron Southwick in Baltimore tomorrow for the game against the Rangers. Here's the stub.

UPDATE: The game came off, finally, after a 2 hour and 40 minute rain delay--that amounts to 4 hours and 20 minutes of rain delays that I've sat through this week. Here's a picture of amazing storm clouds from before the game.

More stubs - Now that I've got my new scanner--$15 after rebate, I'm getting my ticket stubs scanned in. Here are some other games I've been to this year: Spring Training in Florida, Atlanta Braves at Detroit Tigers in Orlando, Philadelphia Phillies at Boston Red Sox in Fort Myers, Houston Astros at Los Angeles Dodgers in Vero Beach; Regular Season, Boston at Baltimore on April 4 and April 5.

Sox deny Clemens at Yankee Stadium - I made it to Yankee Stadium today (Monday) with my buddy John Casson to see the Sox and the Yanks face off for what could have been Roger Clemens' 300th win. But the Sox put on quite a show and beat the Bronx Bombers 8-4 after a rain delay of an hour and 40 minutes. How did I manage to score tickets for this game, since it was the most in-demand game of the season so far? All of my connections failed me on this one, so I was left to the wiles of the scalpers--until the rain set in. Apparently once the game was delayed, many ticket holders either thought the game would not be played, or didn't feel like waiting through the delay. So I simply walked up to the box office and asked for the best available seats. They gave me seats just past the dugout on the third-base side. Here's a picture of my ticket stub, and here's a picture of my scorecard.
