cubs vs. giants - game 3

We sat in the upper deck down the third base line


Pretty nice views


Coast guard keeping watch


Kate likes Kosuke




We went with friends of mine from work - Dan (and his wife Jill) and Jason (and his wife Marsha)


View of the Bay Bridge from the upper deck




Giant's John Bowker hit a HR into McCovey Cove in the 6th inning - only the 47th 'splash home run' since the park opened (that's the ball floating in the water...)


But the Cubbies won


6-5




Then we watched the pre-4th of July fireworks show




Good times. Game 4 this afternoon.

Confusing sign outside the ballpark


Cubs take the first game 9-2. DeRosa hit two homers, including a grand slam. Lilly threw eight shutout innings. Good start to the series. See you tomorrow night.
