Florida State League Baseball






I went to see the Palm Beach Cardinals play the St. Lucie Mets at Roger Dean Stadium down in Jupiter, Florida last night and it was great fun.  Not only do you get to sit in the front row right next to the "on deck" hitters, you only have to pay 7 bucks to get in (it would have been $9.00, but they gave me the senior discount without my even asking.  They are SO sweet).  In any case, it is kind of like going back to a simpler time.  The crowd was small, but there were a lot of families there having a good time.  Even the bat boys family was there.  I know this because his father bent over the dugout to shout instructions at him.  Granted, it was a little on the warm side, but after all, it is August in Florida, so let's play ball!
