(949/365)
Our company took us out to the ballgame tonight. We went up to Hadlock Field to watch the Richmond Flying Squirrels kick the Portland Sea Dogs butt. My son brought his glove and almost left it in the car (I talked him out of it). We were along the 1st base line, slightly in the outfield. A foul ball ripped down the line and got caught up in the tarp, my son helped the Sea Dog's player find the ball (there was a moment of confusion on the player's side) as a reward, I watched this guy carefully place the ball over the fence in a sea of kids & gloves, into my son's glove. My son was so happy after that.
After the game, he waited by the fence for an autograph, all but one player tried to ignore the crowd, he got Nate Spears' autograph. Nate Spears is the Second Baseman. Nate went 3 for 5 tonight, I believe he even led off the night with a double. This guy is a class act in my son's book, that's for sure.
