Matsui and the Sea Dogs game

Look at all the photographers!!
For Me???
Calia and Eli
Boo, Hiss
Last night, we went to Calia's second baseball game in 6 days, this time at good ol' Hadlock Field in Portland. We met up with my coworker, Andrew, his wife, Deb, and their little guy Eli, who is 7 1/2 months old. It was game 3 of the playoffs and the Sea Dogs (Red Sox affiliate) were playing the Trenton Thunder (Yankees affiliate). To add to the drama, Hideki Matsui was playing for Trenton while rehabing his broken wrist. Like the good Sox fans we are, we booed him everytime he stepped to the plate. Kevin and I have seen him before when we saw the Sox/Yanks game in April 2004, but it was cool to see him play in little Portland. Funnier was the hords of Japanese photographers at Hadlock. Apparently, the guy is the elvis of japan. Whatever. Sea Dogs won, now if only the Red Sox could do the same.... Oh well, we'll alwyas have 2004!
