If you like your baseball games to end in nine innings, don’t watch one I attend.

Last night I went to my fourth Nationals game of the season — all of which have gone into extra innings (10, 13, 10, 11).  Unfortunately, the 2-1 loss to the Orioles broke my winning streak to start the year.

Of course it was still a baseball game, and thus extremely fun.  We saw the rare occurrence of two balls being thrown into the dugout within a span of five innings.  The Orioles also got their first run after a ground ball up the middle hit off the pitcher’s foot and caromed 9382937 feet into the air.

AV, who was in attendance, took a picture of me:

Ok, so maybe she was taking a picture of the nice sunset and I happened to be sitting on that side of the stadium.  But you can’t prove that.  Um, unless maybe you ask her.  In which case she is lying.

I also took a picture of her empty seat (before she arrived).  You’ll notice Nats phenom Bryce Harper is in this one too, after hitting a foul ball to my right:

For your planning purposes, my next game is Friday June 1.  I’m feeling 12 innings for that one.
