Take Me Out to the Ballgame

It's always pretty neat to watch the Giants play at SBC (or AT&T or Pacbell) Park. Even better is taking off from work at 4pm to catch the game on the few days it did not rain here. The last time I went to watch the Giants Barry Bonds blasted his 44th homer of the season against the SD Padres.

Last night the Giants lost pretty badly against Houston Astros behind the nearly perfect pitching of Roy Oswalt. I should qualify that by saying the Giants had to play doubleheader games, making up for a rained out and cancelled game last Tuesday. In any case they split the games.

If you do make it out to SBC Park one of the best deal is the spicy Sheboygan sausages. (I was lucky enough to get this advice from Nick and Petey who were with us at the game.) The Sheboygan is basically a huge wurst sausage with grilled onion and sauerkrauts, extraordinarily huge, and extremely tasty—all for $6.50. That usually follows pretty well with the Gordon Biersch garlic fries. Otherwise everything else at SBC can get pretty pricey.

Next game? Giants vs. Dodgers in May (schedule.) Next eats? The Cha-Cha-Bowl.

On another note Barry Bonds was in the news although not in a good way. I think it would be ironic if he was 1 run from Hank Aaron's home run record (755) and he gets thrown in jail. Ouch!

Happy Good Friday and I hope all of you will have a great Easter celebration. And remember to always give thanks to our Lord Jesus.
