Baseball Game 2

We went to our second Spring Training baseball game yesterday - at Camelback Ranch - Glendale. We saw the SF Giants vs the LA Dodgers. Giants easily won - Yea! (We left before the last inning.) Saw many starters, but by the seventh inning there were mostly non roster players. I actually like seeing the young guys out there. Yesterday there were several pitchers who were obviously making their Major League debuts. We could hear their families and friends cheering them on. High 5s in the Giants dugout several times following a newbie's successful inning. I will say that at this point the Giants look great!! Lots of talent in all positions. The bats are strong! I predict they will do well this year, again!

As we left the stadium we could see out west what appeared to be a huge dust cloud - the winds had really picked up. But it turned out to be the smoke from a very large brush fire near Buckeye to the west of Phoenix. The air quality was not very good yesterday. But the temps were perfect.
