Evan was thrilled to learn that the Astros would be in town, sort of, while he's here, for the first time in 10 years. The kids and Tim piled in the car a few hours ago, and took off early, hoping to get there in time for batting practice. I think they made it! Tim sent me this photo from his phone. I guess the seats aren't the most horrible, although I've never liked sitting in the outfield. Maybe they'll catch a foul ball. Tim also called me so that I could hear the National Anthem. Tonight, it was played by one of the military bands.
Tim has decided that his team should be the Giants, since we live closer to them than the Phillies (the team he had been following and selecting in the APBA game). Sorry, Daddy.
I guess I should go watch the game. Maybe I'll see them. I hope they all remembered to bundle up (if it's ever warm in San Francisco, it's a fluke).

As long as Rowand, former Phillie, is the SF centerfielder, Tim's choice of a team could have been worse. I mean, he could have chosen the Astros. I'm sorry that you bolted Tim. Now, I'm the only pro-Phillie west of the Mississippi.
13-0! Giant fans can always bank on a victory when Houston is the "opposition." Right E E?

It is a good thing Bethany told me to dress warmer. The chill coming off of the bay or maybe off of the Astros was freezing. People were wearing gloves and scarves. The Giants whopped the visitors something awful. I had fun but Evan will be in shock for some time.
