Take me out to the ball game...

Joanne won 4 Tigers tickets the other day not knowing that the game started at 1:05 pm when she put her name in for the drawing. She calls me up and asked me who am I going to take since the game starts at 1:05? I said "the kids". And she said "umm, they have school dear". "Oh...they can leave early." I replied. "I hate it when they miss school." she explained. "It's OK. We got smart kids, they will catchup what they miss at school." this cool dad reasoned. :-)

We had a great time at the ball park. This was Serena's first Tigers game and she was excited. Of course we had to keep up with the tradition of eating all the junk food we can handle. Between four of us we had 5 dogs, 2 killer burgers, 1 huge nachos, 1 basket of fries, hot chocolate, pops, and 2 tall Labbats for dad.

I saw something for the first time at the game...3 pitches...3 runs. Grilli came out to relieve and his first pitch was a double, his second pitch was a single, and his third was a homerun. Oh, and his fourth pitch was a single too. How sad!!!

Tigers lost but I had a great time with the kids!!!
