Take Me Out To The Ballgame

Once a year my Grandpa Sachs gets to invite his family to join him in one of the company suites at Safeco field to root for the Mariners. I've been talking about going to this baseball game for months. Every day I ask if today is the day. I've even often told people that I am going "to see Peepa play baseball."

Well, last Friday the big game finally arrived and although my Peepa didn't actually join the players on the field, as I'd anticipated, I quite enjoyed sitting with him and rooting for the home team. I also enjoyed walking around the stadium with my Grandma and charming the staff into giving me baseball cards. Grandma also taught me to say Ichiro and for the rest of the night I pulled him out from the deck and said his name.

For those who haven't had a chance to sit in one of the suites, let me tell you a bit about them. You get all the food and drinks you can handle (popcorn and hotdogs included), a gorgeous view of the Seattle city skyscape, plush leather arm chairs inside the suite and your own private bleacher seats outside, and even a visit from the Marnier Moose, if you're really fortunate.

Oh, and in case you missed the game...we won!
