Phillies tune-up vs. the Rays
My dad took us out to the ballgame on Saturday afternoon to see the Phillies in their last spring training game before the regular season, here in Philadelphia against the Tampa Bay Rays. In a way it was a repeat of their World Series play against each other - the weather here was cold (55F/13C) and windy, which probably felt familiar to all involved. All we needed was some rain or snow!
The wind was blowing wicked fierce:
Fortunately, we were sitting in a luxury box with very comfy indoor quarters:
Nick, having worn his Phillies World Champions gear every day in Tampa the other week to antagonize the locals, was happy to be on home ground once again:
Anna had a good time too:
Between the preseason nature of the game and the wild weather conditions, this didn't really feel like baseball season. That said, it was great to get out to the park and wake up the baseball part of our brains after a long winter's nap. Play ball!
