Mariner's Game

On August 2nd we went to a Mariner's Game. A friend of ours has season tickets and we bought her tickets for Saturday's game. We were lucky as Saturday was Season Ticket Holder Appreciation Night so we were able to go in early and watch the players warm up. Both Kyle and Kevin each were able to catch a batting practice ball to bring home. We also received some nice long sleeve Mariner's shirts for that wonderful weather we have from October to May each year.

It was also Mariner's Trading Card night and the boys traded with a bunch of people at the game to get 4 full sets of the 27 cards which included Aurthur Rhodes which had just been traded a few days before.

Sad to say they did lose 1 to 3 but they had a some great plays chasing down runners between 2nd and 3rd and the boys had a great time eating hot dogs, popcorn, pretzels, chocolate covered strawberries, peanuts and cotton candy.

Kyle and Kevin not happy with us as we made them turn around and look at us instead of trying to get those fly balls.
