Jake, who turns 14 years old next month, chose to go to a Salt Lake Bees AAA baseball game with us, and that took us Smith's Ballpark in SLC Tuesday night for their matchup with the San Antonio Missions (the Milwaukee Brewers' AAA club).
The game started out very poorly for the Bees (and very slowly for us); the Missions scored six runs in the top of the first, and SL's starting pitcher was forced out of the game after only 1/3 inning of pitching. By the end of that first half-inning of play, the game was already a half-hour old. Nevertheless, the Bees bounced back by chipping away at the lead, including hitting two home runs. San Antonio still ended up winning, 7-5.
Well, it's still fun being at the ball game and seeing one live in one of the best parks in the country. Our nephew had a good time, most importantly. We snacked on peanuts and popcorn while we watched the action on the field. We also had very good seats, sitting behind home plate.
It was a fun night out with a great kid, and we're looking forward to maybe attending more games over the summer.
