There I was, up in our seats for my last game.
The wind had picked up and it was kinda cold, and it was right about when all the Cardinal fans around me started with the, "Lets go Cardinals, lets go cardinals..." that I got the text from Olson.
"There's a bunch of empty seats down here, wanna come down?"
Suddenly, I was right behind that dude with the pink hat you see right behind home plate all the time.
I got this shot off of Cubs.com.
Unbelievable seats.
Tony LaRussa had just been ejected, and right after I sat down Card pitcher Blake Hawksworth caught the Sam Fuld line drive to the mouth.
So, that was pretty scary.
But just as a set of words to say out loud, this is pretty hilarious: CASEY COLEMAN OUT-DUELS CHRIS CARPTENTER!
What?
Yeah, that's right. And the Cubs beat the Cards 7-3.
Little Sam Fuld went 2 for 4, scoring once and driving in 2.
Awesome W for my last Wrigley Field Trip.
Olson & co., thanks for the invite down.
I've said this before, once you get down in the Incredible Section (pretty much anywhere in the first 20 rows), you can be a Pro Sports Photographer.
This is my fav shot from yesterday:
Yes, Sam Fuld was the bigger player.
Yesterday at least.
Okay... Bob Brenly drops out of the Cubs Managerial Race only to be replaced by Ozzie Guillen.
NOBODY guessed him in the painting competition yet...
