Entry 305: Royals Game (Orioles)



Tonight we went to see the Royals/Orioles game and saw the Royals actually come from behind and win 4-3. Julie enjoyed it because she was able to see her two favorite players: Zach Greinke, who started the game, and Joakim Soria, who came in and closed the game. Lance enjoyed the game because it was also Salute To The Negro Leagues night where they bring back some of the old Negro League players and the teams wear the Negro League uniforms. Lance likes remembering the history, plus we also got free Kansas City Monarchs hats. We actually gave one of the hats to the usher because the employees don't get the giveaways and she has always been nice to us. A great game and Lance has ranked it his second favorite game of the year (behind the Red Sox game).


Here is the hat we got tonight.


Whenever Soria comes in to save the game they play Welcome To The Jungle and have flames coming from all of the screens.
