I guess when your team is the defending World Champions, everyone gets on the bandwagon and wants to see them. There were three games in the south Florida area against the Orioles and the Marlins that I tried to get tickets for, we had plans to go to one game with my wife and another with her brother and two kids -- and I was only able to secure a single seat for myself for the March 24 game with the O's, despite being online the moment tickets went on sale. :excited:

On the positive side, we do have plans to get to Boston in June and I was able to score two pairs of tickets for June 14 and 15. The seats for June 14 are something like these:

And best of all, we got Green Monster seats, the coolest seats in baseball, for June 15.

BTW, that is the interleague series against the Reds-what are the chances that Junior Griffey will be healthy and playing? It'd be nice to see a future Hall of Famer, but given his recent history, we're almost resigned to the assumption that he'll be hurt by the time June rolls around.

anyone going to a spring training game?

Living in southeast Florida, there is ample opportunity to check out spring training games. The Orioles train nearby in Ft. Lauderdale, while the St. Louis Cards and the Florida Marlins share Roger Dean Stadium in Jupiter, 30 miles north of me. If I wish to travel 60 miles to Port St. Lucie, I can check out the Mets. To wit, a good friend who has a 2nd home down here and is a Met fan (I'm a Yankee fan, hold the boos), wanted to see Pedro, Carlos B, etc., so we attended this Friday's game between the Cards and the visiting Mets. Lots of fun and since we left early, I was able to get a foul ball that quite audibly hit the roof and bounced right in front of me as we exited the stadium. :tup

Hey Dan, did you ever get that Bosox-Yankees sportswriter book? It's still on my to-get list...

I think its just recently been published. I think I'm going to order through Amazon and get Shaugnessey's "Curse Reverersed" book at the same time and get the free shipping deal. (Just to be clear, I don't think that's the verbatim title of Shaugnessey's book)

She would probably say, get a bigger bed.

Dude, you check a game out yet?

The d-backs are a totally changed team. Gonzalez is the only returning starter from the beginning of last season.
