Dragons at Lugnuts - August 29th.

So on my way home from class, I got drenched in a pretty significant downpour, and the game outlook looked pretty bleak. However, we kept calling the park, and they said the game was on - not a single drop fell after 7:00.

So some interesting things - Drew Stubbs wasn't particularly impressive - but not a whole lot of balls made it into the outfield for him to show off his fielding. And he had a couple of hard hit balls that nonetheless were not all that close to being out. It was Todd Frazier's first game as a Dragon - didn't have his name on his jersey yet. He laced a double all the way to the wall on his first at bat - probably the most impressive hit the Dragons had all night - though there weren't many of them. Frazier also muffed a couple of ground balls, and failed to turn a double play that maybe could have been turned. But it was his first game. No sweat. And one of the ground balls looked like it should have been the thirdbaseman's.

After the game, I waited outside the ballpark, and proceeded to totally embarass myself in front of like half the dragon's roster by giggling and acting like a 13 year old girl. I kind of look like a 13 year old, so it's all ok. Also: one of the pitchers hit on my friend lauren, and I DID get Todd Frazier to sign my ticket. Hooray! He also saw the little happy dance I did directly after, which was kind of embarrassing.

Hey. I was nervous.

Hopefully...
...your friend Lauren doesn't look like a 13-year-old.  ;-)
