Bob, the Boys and their Grandfather went to a Round Round Express baseball game on Sunday. The Express played the Corpus Christie Hooks in an exhibition game.

The weather was perfect, the sky was high and blue, it was windy and cool. We had very good seats behind the visitor's dugout in the 4th row.

Bobby and Ivan were both very attentive and enjpoyed the game and the fun stuff that happens throughout the game. Bobby talked a lot to his grandfather about the plays and the players and Ivan sang and clapped and danced along with the music.

There were several great fielding plays like a player thrown out at home from the outfield and a bunt and bad throw to third and a run scored on a wild pitch. Several balls were hit near us. Some promotional sponge balls were thrown out and Bobby caught one on the deflection. Ivan mostly ate snacks the entire time but he paid attention and cheered and yelled "Go Round Rock!" the entire time. He and Bobby led several chants that made the people around us smile and laugh.

The game went by fast and we all had a great time. Bobby said that it didn't matter which team won, it was just awesome to go to watch a good game with the family men.
