Citi Field (St. Johns exhibition, otherwise second real game) I've also already been to the new Giants stadium for a Bon Jovi concert, to cross sports a little. Latest, RFK, final two games. I wonder how long Nationals Park will go without a sponsor? If they're truly an up and coming franchise, I can't imagine they won't reach for that extra 10-15million a year in DC that could net them an extra free agent stud. Hmm, Earliest/latest?

Unfortunately, while they played Michael Jackson's "Billie Jean," the guy playing Thomas Jefferson walked right into my line of sight at the line, "But the kid is not my son!" The Nats beat San Diego in 10, great game. Earliest I've been to a ballpark? The new Yankee Stadium, its 4th game, April 19, 2009, Yanks came back to beat Cleveland. Latest? Memorial Stadium, Baltimore, its next-to-last, October 5, 1991, Orioles beat Detroit.

And Johan was on fire that night, on the mound and at the plate! I enjoyed seeing you there and meeting Jeff that evening. And Johan was on fire that night, on the mound and at the plate!
