Determined that the WBC wouldn't be the only baseball of the weekend, we hit an MLB Spring Training game this evening. Perhaps more special than a typical Spring Training game, the game we picked was the Milwaukee Brewers vs. the Japanese National Baseball Team, which was in the country for the WBC. It was a pretty neat experience, though a surprisingly cold night for Phoenix. I did bring a jacket with me to Phoenix (along with gloves and a knit cap, knowing the temperature variance potential of the desert), but it was a light jacket, and I only brought t-shirts, nothing heavier, so I was pretty much freezing my butt off most of the game.
A particularly cool aspect of the game was the fact that Ichiro, of Seattle Mariners fame, was on the Japanese team. Also cool, was the glimpse I got of potential future baseball stars, in the form of Tony Gwynn Jr. and Prince Fielder (who hit a homerun). Oh, and let's not forget the famous sausage races!
