Today was a baseball day!! We headed out early to the first game to watch the jays vs. white sox. Owen had a lot of luck today getting Barney's autograph and Donaldson right at the end of the game. The cool thing about this park is that it isn't very full. You are easily able to move up to closer seats after the 3rd inning. I had gone with Owen to sit right behind home plate in the second row. The guys don't usually sign at the end of the game and security is pretty hard to get by but Owen had great luck and Donaldson stopped and signed his ball! Griffin was kicking himself because he chose to stay in his seat and not come with us. Owen was a very happy boy!!
I completely loved my view and spending the afternoon at the park!
Manager John Gibbons also signed balls for the boys.
Right after the game, we jumped on the subway and rode it all the way to Wrigley field! Two games back to back. It doesn't happen too often, but we were lucky enough to do it!
The boys were able to get a few autographs here as well, but not as much fun when its not your home team!!
It was a long day of baseball, but being at this park was a really special night! I don't think there is any crowd like it. The attendants were just like you pictured... Margie ushering people away the minute they stopped, beer man selling beer, hot dog man and more! Some real characters that make the experience that much better!
At the end of the game we headed home on the subway and stopped at Giordana's for a last deep dish pizza! What a great decision!
This day in Chicago was awesome!! So many great memories that we will all remember!
