Phillies-Braves

So today I had the pleasure of going to a spring training game with my friend Natalie and her sort of boyfriend, John. John works at ESPN Wide World of Sports so he got us tickets...not just any tickets but 4th row tickets! or 1st row behind the Phillies dugout. IT WAS AWESOME. Ryan Howard totally checked me out. ;) The Braves routed the Phillies 8-0...it wasn't much of a showing for the 2009 National League Champs but it was really cool to be so close to the players. The weather was absolutely beautiful. If the Braves had a home run...which they had 3, fireworks shot off from behind the scoreboard and I love fireworks! They also had fireworks during the national anthem which was both startling and really cool. Here are some pictures!


Natalie and I at the entrance to the complex.

The Phillies Dugout, oh so close.

Chipper Jones in his first at bat...he is a switch hitter and later in the game he switched to be a lefty.

Brian McCann in contact with a nice RBI single...he had two home runs earlier in the game.
