FIRST GAME OF 2005
Went to see the Angels vs. Indians game. Thanks to Jimmy Ng for setting us up!
It was good to be back in Angels Stadium. I don't have a 20 game mini-plan this year so I won't get many chances to be at the ballpark this season.
Coincidentally, my big brother was also at the game with a coworker. His friend is a big Indians fan so I ended up chatting with him about baseball. I also kept my excitement in check when Orlando Cabrera hit the game winning home run. Because even though the Angels won, the game was handed to them on a platter. And that's painful for a baseball fan. Lead off walks in the 8th and 9th inning aren't any way to protect a lead.
So yeah. It was a lot of fun. I got to hang out with guys from the fantasy league and my brother. I tried to make some fantasy trades but noone was interested... yet.
