16. August, 2003 - That’s more like it
-
Saints bats erupt early in 14-5 romp over Joliet last night. The Saints looked like a completely different team early in the game, playing sharply, and capitalizing when they had men on base. Heck, they batted around and then some in the first inning.
-
It was also the pre-PeTA night. We were originally planning today to be PeTA day, but since Jody’s parents had to leave this morning, we decided to do a (maybe smaller) gathering on Friday night, too. Not a whole lot of exotica, but a fair amount of meat was consumed by all.
-
It was a hot evening, though. Game-time temperature was 90F, and before the game in the parking lot, it was even hotter than that. Quite a few refreshing adult beverages were consumed, and there was the small pool for the ladies to dangle their feet in.
-
Terry had PeTA shirts to sell at the game, and a couple of the guys wandered the parking lot with them, making sure that anyone who wanted one could get one.
-
Finally, it’s coming up on my birthday, and I found myself wondering what Kevin Sullivan is up to (since we share a birthday). Turns out he spent the year playing in the Central League which is also home to the Fort Worth Cats where Twig and Marty Scott went.
- According to the weather guy, today's going to be another hot one, so I expect the real PeTA celebration tonight will include a lot of the same elements as last night. Hopefully the Saints will be hot, too.
