last night i got to hang out and play catch with a few of my friends on the toronto blue jays...
not really, but i was close enough to get a picture of the relief pitchers in the bullpen. oh, and the blue jays won, and eugene and i found free tickets to a sold out game at angel stadium - just as we were about to head home. all in all a pretty great night. this image isn't really pasadena related, but its not too far. about 40 minutes if traffic is good.
a side note: the jays and angels were wearing commemorative patriotic weekend hats - compare this and this to what they normally wear here and here.
i promised a picture of city hall, but i bumped it for this. stay tuned tomorrow when i promise there really will be a picture of city hall.

How cool that you were able to get in the game for FREE, then get this awesome shot. Did they play "O Canada" before the game?
I was going to be so jealous if you were on the field snapping away. I am still jealous you could get such a great photo. I like the hats, the Angel blue looks good, they should bring out a blue version on Sundays like the Cardinals do.
WCGB - Of course "O Canada" was sung! Sadly we were still in the parking lot looking for tickets at that moment.
Jim - It seems like many in attendance still wear one of the old school caps that the angels had that included blue with a red brim. I'm sure marketers drool at the possibility of including throwback uniforms from time to time - if only the Angels could decide where they are from (LA, Anahem, California, etc).
this is a great shot!
Thanks Lily! It was a fun game to be at, the picture is a little grainy for my liking but I love how busy the image is - the pitcher warming up, the players chatting, sunflower seeds strewn everywhere, and the crowd in the background.
The ANGELS! Now that sounds like it should be your team.
Ben & The Angels.
Yeah, that sounds right!
Back to back World Series wins in 92 and 93 solidified my loyalty to the Jays. Anything else would feel totally incorrect.
Although I will admit to starting a love for the Dodgers - everyone needs an NL team I guess.
