I'm not sure if there's anything more appropriate than a baseball game to ring in the start of summer. This evening we headed to Baltimore to catch the Orioles beat the Kansas City Royals with a walk-off home run. Besides getting to see a fantastic bottom of the ninth, we were graced by an incredible stroke of good luck and kindness when a girl gave us three free tickets right behind home plate. As it turns out, her brother is a relief pitcher for the Orioles and she had extra tickets for the game she wasn't using. Since there were five of us with only three free tickets to go around, we split the cost of two more seats behind home plate and enjoyed the game from the best seats in the stadium for only $20 a person. The only thing that would have made the night a touch more perfect would have been a foul ball our way, but lucky beggars can't be greedy choosers, right?
