I went to the game on Monday.  The excitement is palpable.  Going to four games in September!  Can't wait.  Great game last night...

I have 6 left including tonight.  Not counting the playoffs, of course.  ;D

I realize school's back in but when only 12K show up to see this team it's embarrassing.

Thinking about going tonight.  Would LOVE to go tomorrow but can't get out of work.

Big series in NY this weekend.  When was the last time we has an important series in September?

Agreed.  I am hoping it's that school is back.  People complaining on the blogs about how they don't go because it's expensive can shut up.  They have 9 dollar seats once a week, 5 dollar seats for students, a free ticket on your birthday, and they had a few games this year for 4 bucks.

Plus, you can take in all your food and non-alcoholic beverages.

And their tickets are way cheaper than all the other stadiums I've been too, besides maybe Pittsburgh.

Am going to the Yankees game next Thursday.  I do not get along well with Yankee fans.

At least you won't have to deal with bandwagon Red Sox fans.

I will say that Red Sox fans are worse.  At least you can drink before the game with Yankee fans and get along...

I just still cannot get over going to the last game of the season a few years back.  The Orioles were out of the running and the Yankees were winning.  I saw a Yankee fan spit in an usher's face after saying "orioles suck".

I hold grudges.

I don't think so.  Cal's statue is being unveiled that night so I have a feeling there will be more home fans than usual.

At least for that Thursday game.  There will definitely be more Orioles fans.  It's been great to see so many people come out for these games.

I really want to get this shirt for that game

My husband wore his steady eddie shirt to eddie murray day.  It was fun.  (more like eddie murray late night though)

And they even mention run differential!

love it.

What's interesting is that if you've watched all the games, you can see that the Orioles have fought for each and every win.  it's not luck.  It's talent by the players and Buck.

3 out of 4 from the White Sox.  Who just swept the Yankees.  Britton had 10 strikeouts today.
