"We gonna play with the baseball ball?"

The Tuesday night forecast showed a slight chance at rain and a 100% chance of poor air quality. Please, that's not enough for us to keep our poor little kids in house, especially when there's a free baseball game downtown. Mark's former school (UVU) was in town to play the Utes and Chad was really dying to go, so we decided to check it out for a minute. Besides, the last time we got Chad excited about a baseball game, it snowed and we stayed home...he was bummed (poor justification I know.) Thankfully, any chance of rain and all current pollutants cleared up quickly and it made for a great night. The weather even got so mild that we didn't mind bringing Alli out from her bundle. Chad watched attentively for about 10 minutes and spent the rest of the time watching who-know's-what. We'd tell him the name of the batter coming up (like "Jace" for example), and then for the next six batters (on both teams) he'd ask, "Is that Jace?" It was pretty cool, especially when Jace hit a homerun and the Wolverines won the game.
