There’s only one sound in the universe that when you hear it, one is immediately taken back to their fifth grade cafeteria. This is the sound of 5,000 excited school kids all gathered in one place on a field trip. The field trip location today was Fifth Third Ballpark, also known to me as home field. The second I stepped out of the tunnel I said to myself, “God, I’m right back in my elementary school cafeteria.” My next thought was, “Is this a good, or bad thing?” Well we never really got the chance to find out because the game was rained out in the bottom of the first inning, when we were threatening I might add. I can sympathize with the little kids however because I can remember going to games that got rained out. So we all tried to do our part and have some fun and sign a few autographs to give them something to go home with. From inside the clubhouse though, I can’t say that there was all sad and sorrow going around. Like I said before any rest is good rest, but I have to admit, it would have been nice to take one back from Kane County.
