LA.......


Today(Sunday) was an early game at Dodger Stadium. We grabbed a quick McD's breakfast and headed out to the 101 for the Dodgers/D-Backs.

Once we got to the field it was off to Autograph Alley to see some of the players I grew up watching. We met Bobby Castillo, Jerry Reuss, Bill Madlock, Kenny Landreaux, Mike Davis and Bob Welch. Once we were out in CF on the warning track I noticed Bob Welch sneaking a peak at his old stomping grounds. Kirkland and I hurried over and asked if we could get his photo. He was very nice to oblige and Kirk got his photo snapped with a former Rookie of the Year in Bob Welch.

The game was a good one, Dodgers won and we even saw Manny go yard, along with a double. Easy to say he is a fan favorite. I am still seeing how he fits in. So far so good, hitting about .700 in 15 or so at bats.

Well, it's off to bed now. We have one more night here in LA before we leave tomorrow(Monday) for our flight to Atlanta and then home on Tuesday.

I have uploaded a few more photos. Click here to view and check back soon for some more.
