There are still quite a few “first” experiences for me to have, but tonight, I was able to cross “Go to a Tiger’s Baseball Game” off the list!

Fr. Jim invited me to an event for young adults from St. Anastasia where we would all meet at the rectory at 5 pm for a barbecue, then carpool to Comerica Park to see the Detroit Tigers play against the Kansas City Royals.

It was beautiful weather for both a barbecue and a ball game! We had grilled hot dogs and hamburgers, chips, soda, and cookies.

We had a really good turn-out; I didn’t get a count of how many of us were there, but somewhere around 30 young adults. For a Tuesday evening, that’s pretty good!

There was another tiny Tigers fan present, but unfortunately she wasn’t able to come see the game with us.

HERE IT IS!

We ended up losing to the Royals 5-1, but I enjoyed watching the game. 🙂

Our group shot! If you count, there’s about FIFTY of us here!

It was such a fun night! You couldn’t ask for better weather, or better friends with which to watch the game!
