Excellent Chuck, we'll arrange red carpet #2 for the occasion. Stoney made full use of red carpet #1 with field club seats. He was happy to laugh at my boy Cain after the 2nd HR in the 6th inning when Cain had the Homer Simpson "DOH" going on. And it was only TWO dingers, the 3rd was given up by Jack Taschner out of the 'pen.
Mike is a full head taller than me, which ain't saying much. I dunno Yao, never met the dude, but I met Manute Bol once in person & I was only about half as tall as 'Nute, so you get the picture.
Speaking of the Taschner HR, Adrian Gonzalez hit it (lefty off lefty) & it was one of the most impressive HRs ever hit in that park. Deep deep center field, deepest part of the yard, and it was YANKED. I am going to say a good 440/450 at least, which is not easy in that park. Niners may be able to swallow Adrian's 50 GIDPs if he hits 30 more of those puppies.
Anyway, all in all a killer night of baseball even though my G's took the L. My 2nd in-person meet from the USKL after DT's visit out here, and I think we need to make a play for an all-hands FTF meet next year. Vegas anyone?
