I've always enjoined sharing some of mine and Maven's adventures over the years, and we had a fun one last night. Although the Rangers ultimately got thrashed in the game itself, we still had a fun time.
We met our "handler" for the evening and were immediately taken to the interview room at the ballpark
Next up, we got ushered to the field, where we spent over half an hour hanging out and enjoying the festivities from a tremendous view

This is what she was here for, to deliver the gameball and the rosin bag to the pitcher's mound
Prior to the National Anthem, we got to enjoy a flyover
We were at the end of the Angels team for the Anthem
Here's our favorites lined up across the field
After the anthem, it was time for Maven to take the stuff to the mound
She made the big screen, I teased her about the lack of a last name, kinda like Madonna, Pele, Barney
etc.,
Here she is enjoying the moment with the crowd cheering her on
After her delivery, we hung around a bit, Elvis is in the house
Don't know who this Angel is, but he seemed to be wondering the same about us
They tell me this kid can play a little
Despite our squad getting beaten by a couple of touchdowns, we still had a fun daddy/daughter 4th of July

As for the Angel you're unsure of, I really hate to do this to you, but...

Link isn't working but that would be David Freese who scored 3 times yesterday. Great experience and pics though.
Did Maven pat Elvis on top of his head?? LOL!!

Liquidating my collection for the 3rd and final time. Time for others to enjoy what I have enjoyed over the last several decades. Money could be put to better use.
Edited - I think he's actually 6th from the left.

<< <i>That's awesome Mike! Those memories are priceless. Your and Maven's special bond is so fun to see when you post these stories. >>
Well said. You can feel the excitement through those pictures Mike. Glad you and Maven had a great time as the final score will become a distant memory to the time you spent on the field together.

Did you tell her that she can date them only after they pass the CPA exam? That should keep you covered for awhile.

As a Cardinals fan, I immediately recognized David Freese. I was hoping to break it to you who that was. I would have done it very, very gently!

Oh man, as a Rangers fan that has got to sting. I must admit I'm shocked he didn't recognize THAT guy. That was one of the best World Series I ever watched.
