It was a lot cooler today. High in the low 70s and a north wind about 15 mph. Doesn't sound too bad considering what is going on elsewhere around the country. At the ballpark here however in the second level where we sit in the shade, that means long pants, and a sweatshirt as the wind comes through there like in a wind tunnel. So, we bundled up for the game which turned out to be a real clunker for the Phillies playing the Atlanta Braves.
The Phillies starting pitcher an "almost major leaguer" gave up 3 runs before getting the first out. It got worse from there as a secession of minor league pitchers continued to not pitch very well as the score continued to rise to 14-2.
We lasted until the 6th inning. We felt windblown and "cold", low minor league players came in to finish the game, so we left early. Not a common occurrence but the right one for today.
Dinner in the RV again tonight. Two days off before the St. Patrick's Day game on Friday.
It looks like the weather will remain cooler with a chance of rain on Saturday. Our early summer here is heading back to normal for a while.
