IronPigs Report: "The cheap seats are the best!"

General Admission ticket, entitling bearer to sit on lawn outside of center field: $6.00

Two game balls caught by lucky fans: Priceless!
"The cheap seats are the best!" That's my grandson's assessment after spending Saturday night in the lawn outside center field. The IronPigs have yet to win a game, but these kids still think baseball is just another way to have fun.

My grandson reports he had more fun Saturday night than he ever did at a major league stadium. He and a few friends even formed an informal fan club for centerfielder Brandon Watson, who made an amazing catch on the warning track, threw from center right to third and started a team rally. Most importantly Watson tossed the kids one of those balls.

    Glad you like it, Marc. We'll be in the cheap seats again on Friday night after practice.

You own views are appreciated, especially if they differ from mine. But remember, commenting is a privilege, not a right. I will delete personal attacks or off-topic remarks at my discretion. Comments that play into the tribalism that has consumed this nation will be declined. So will comments alleging voter fraud unless backed up by concrete evidence. If you attack someone personally, I expect you to identify yourself. I will delete criticisms of my comment policy, vulgarities, cut-and-paste jobs from other sources and any suggestion of violence towards anyone. I will also delete sweeping generalizations about mainstream parties or ideologies, i.e. identity politics. My decisions on these matters are made on a case by case basis, and may be affected by my mood that day, my access to the blog at the time the comment was made or other information that isn’t readily apparent.
