DLBT Resumes!!!

 Following a 2-year hiatus due to Covid, the DLBT finally resumed in 2022. It was pretty simple. We originally were just doing San Diego and Anaheim, but the Dodgers had one final afternoon game on a Wednesday so it worked out perfectly. 

Wednesday: Nationals at Dodgers

The game started at 12:10 Pacific Time so our 7am flight to LAX allowed us to go straight from the airport to the stadium. And thankfully, everything worked out for us to do just that. It was a gorgeous day in a gorgeous setting as you'll see by these pics...




Game was over after the first inning as the Dodgers put up 6 in the bottom of the first. Couple Dodger Dogs and afternoon baseball beers were on the menu on this great day!

Thursday: Rangers at Angels

 Easily the worst of the three stadiums we visited but Angel Stadium is perfectly fine. It was a perfect evening for baseball and we got to see Shohei Ohtani pitch (and hit). He allowed just 2 runs but the Angels couldn't muster any offense of their own (Ohtani went 0-4) and lost 2-0. More beers and Angel Dogs on the menu for this one as well. Pics... 




Friday: Twins at Padres

Great park and a great crowd showed up for a Friday night beatdown. Padres rolled to a 10-1 win hitting 5 homers. And this is before they added Juan Soto at the trade deadline from the Nationals. Had to continue the trend of beers and dogs. The Friar Frank was delicious just like the Dodger Dog. The Angel Dog was solid but not on the level of the other two. Pics...




Saturday morning back to the airport and back to Cincy. 3 days 3 parks checked off. Ready for 2023!!
