Trains and Baseball



We made our first family sojourn to friendly Safeco field tonight to watch Mariners vs. Twins. It was just my kind of game, a 1-1 pitcher's duel until (sadly) the Twins won in the 10th. Sam and I were long gone by then; we were both getting sleepy, and we left after the 8th because it had the look of a game that might last a while.


Tonight's give-away was the latest Mariner's train car, this one commemorating the 10th anniversary of Safeco Field.


Our favorite part, though, was the celebration of UW Huskies softball that took place right before the game. They brought out the entire championship team, and their star pitcher Danielle Lawrie threw out the first pitch (underhand, with a softball).....a very cool Seattle sports moment!
