Spring Training 2010

The serious baseball fans in the family Greg and Kevin (not to be confused with the serious baseball player--Scott) spent a weekend in in Phoenix, Arizona in what has become their bi-annual trek to Spring Training. We branched out beyond Scottsdale this year and visited the Angels camp, but generally this is a trip we have down. Kevin is the first one in the stadium and positions himself for his best autograph opportunities. He struggled at times this year no longer able to rely on his "cute little kid" look, but he came home with a wealth of autographs.

Greg enjoyed just talking baseball and sparking up conversations with strangers...even those wearing the wrong colors. Everyone is in a good mood at Spring Training and it's the only time of year that no one is bothered by a loss or a poor record.

The sun was warm, the baseball enjoyable and the frustrations non-existent. And now it's time to play ball!
