We went on Friday night. Wouldn't you know it? My first game this season and we had a 2 hour rain delay! The rain wasn't so bad. We had covered seats. (I knew rain was in the forecast so I made sure to get the covered ones!) What I hadn't anticipated was the wind! It must have blown in around 50 mph. Trash from all over the ballpark was blowing around everywhere. I snapped a couple of pictures that show some of it on the field. It was actually a lot worse than these pictures show.
Then, the rain started. It was still blowing so we had to get out of our seats for a while until the rain died down. It was blowing up under the covered area.
This is the field about half way through the rain delay...
Every Friday is Fireworks night. I was disappointed that we'd probably miss them. BUT...they shot them off when the rain let up, before they resumed the game. So, yea! We got to see the fireworks set to the Beatles music!
Then we left even though they were going to resume the game. (it was bottom of the 7th) It was already 11pm!! We all slept in on Saturday. It was lots of fun. We have tickets for 3 or 4 more upcoming games
so hopefully no rainouts in the future!

Looks like fun, even though it rained.
