My Day At The Tigers Game




We got our tickets at the last minute. Me my mom my uncle pat and his wife Cindy all went. Oh and my brother Alex. We all went down there in my uncles car. First we had to go buy aunt cindy a hat. We all had our Detroit tigers hat, she was the only one that didn't have one. So uncle pat bought her one. Then we realized we dint have the tickets. So good thing for us we were 2 minutes from the house. We came back and got them and we were off. We stopped in Ionia to have chinese food for lunch. Anyone that knows mom knows she hates chinese. So we had to listen to her bickering. Uncle pat even started being a cracker. I thought it was fine. The place was run down but the food was ok. So we started again for Detroit. When we arrived I was still amazed, even though it wasn't my first time I just couldn't help but standing in amazement. Me mom and alex have been before, but uncle pat and cindy had not been before. So we took them around to show them things.
I was a little worried to begin with because I knew we were playing the yankees. (losers) I dislike them very much. My fear was soon noted as ease. We won that game 16-0. They got three little hits that dint amount to anything. 16-0 is bad but but against the yankees that is un heard of. It's just Awesome. So we came back and slept like babies knowing we just whooped their butts.
I know I was excited before the game began. I walked to the entrance to find they were giving away chef hats. (Awesome) Then as I was walking to go see the tigers batting practice I found a ball, that had been carried into the stands by one of the tigers. I was so excited to see some of them off the recovery list I wasn't paying attention and I a ball was coming right at my face. I heard someone yell and I look up as Zumaya quick throws his glove up and save me. I was probably a foot away from being killed or atleast in the hospital for a while. So thank you Zumaya and thank you lord for taking care of me always.
Mom was a blast. She seen Granderson and asked him for a ball. He threw her one. She thanked him and he pointed to her, as if to say your welcome. She loved it. One of our favorite people took the time to make a little old woman happy. For that memory she has nothing will compare. Until next time that is.
