These are our pre-game faces. We walked completely around
the stadium and took pictures from lots of spots and levels of
the Reds batting practice. I'm sure we stuck out a little
bit, but that's all part of the fun!
This was we we first walked in off the street. The Reds
were taking batting practice and, lo and behold, it was Ken
Griffey, Jr.'s turn! We stayed here for a bit and saw
people in front of us catch a few BP HR's!
We went up a level after "Junior" was done hitting. We
took these pictures as batting practice continued. Had to
get some shots from behind home plate.
This is the view from our seats. The Reds are finishing up
batting practice. People are still filing in. We got
to the park about 15 minutes before they closed Monument Park,
so the view from above right is the best we got of it.
There was a rain delay that lasted about an hour. We were
just under the roof that supports the lights so we didn't need
to run for cover during the brief, but wet storm. It was
fun watching the grounds crew do their job. It was so hot
and humid that the rain felt pretty good. The picture
below shows the outfield warning track all sunny and soaked.
