A Forgettable Game... At Least There Were Boobs

DSC_0763.JPG

I can't believe I called in sick to work to watch this utterly terrible Dodger game. The Blue Crew lost 12 to 1 to the Mets at their monthly mid-week day game today. Maine was pitching a complete game shutout into the 9th until the Dodgers managed to squeak out one run to wipe that big fat 0 off the scoreboard. Not much to say about this one. It sucked balls. A bunch of ground balls that were immediately thrown out at first. I would like to erase it from my memory.

Nevertheless, here are some photos for those of you who were even less fortunate and actually had to be at work. A bad day at the ballpark is still better than a good day at work.

Very nice boobage indeed.

 

How can you tell, Alex?

 

Wow, you got to see the Dodgers, the Mets AND the Twins!

 

Never again will I
1) sit in the field box (loge box is better for game watching)
2) go to any game known as school field trip day.

Game sucked too.

 

I bought tickets to a random dodger game when they first went on sale. Luckily it was for Tuesday's game (which was a fantastic game) and not yesterdays. I'm glad I missed it.

BartlettPears - I sat on the field right next to the Mets Batting cage and they were great seats. We could see everything (including the in-the-park home run that was only about 20 feet from where we were sitting) and we got the added bonus of heckling the Met's pitchers all night. Maybe you just got bad field box seats.

 

Actually I had 48FD row A - I had a great view of any ball down the line, but to get into the action took too much focus into what was happening.

The interesting thing about the field box seats is that the seats by the bullpen (batting cage in your take) have the best view of the game due to their placement more toward the home plate, where most other field seats force you to turn your head all the way.

When offered the choice of Field Box or Infield Reserve, IR wins in a heartbeat - the view is better than the food.

BUT - for $15, ill still go again...Thank you recession!


 

Crap. I have tickets for the Dodgers-Cubs and I'm sitting in section 48. I had a bad feeling I'd be staring at the gap in left all day. How are the seats for foul balls, interaction with the RF and/or visitor's bullpen?

 

foul balls are minimal due to it being right field

You can def give it to the rf and bullpen ( I told duaner sanchez to drive safely. He heard it)

my only gripe as it required considerable focus to follow the game.

I was a little high though, but I generally am for games so I didn't feel it made an effect. FYI lot 1 is great for sparking before a game.

Good times.
