Last night, Willis and I went to see the Phillies and Dodgers play, he wearing the red Phils cap and I wearing the Dodger blue. We ended up buying tickets from a guy in a big SUV as he made a turn on the street away from the stadium right as we walked past. Turns out to be the best $20 we each spent because the seats were in the front row of the left friend stands. It was some kind of home run fest. I was verbally attacked when I stood up to cheer Jason Grabowski’s 2 run homerun in the second and a solo shot in the 4th, but the fans warmed to having Dodger fans in their midst, especially when the Phils hit back-to-back-to-back homers in the 4th. Normally I would be impressed by the Phils firepower, but not against my Dodgers. There was a rain delay and we watched the Flyers play on the giant screen. Willis and I snuck down to sit by the dugout. When they resumed play, we got to see the last inning or so super close to the field, even though the Dodgers ended up losing. :::scott:::
