Matt and I went to our first Sky Sox game of the season. The Sky Sox are the AAA team for the Colorado Rockies. We went to a couple of games last season and it was great. Tickets are cheap, the stadium is small, so where ever you sit, you are so close to the field! There are always great seats available, even if you just walk up to the box office. The weather started out beautifully today... white puffy clouds, blue skies and temps in the low 70s. Of course, because this is Colorado Springs, the weather didn't stay that way. About half way through the game, the clouds rolled in, the wind kicked up and the rain started to fall. Luckily the rain didn't come down hard or last for long, but it's still very typical of here! After about 20 minutes of rain, the clouds moved on and the sun came out again.
The Sky Sox were playing pretty well... they got some runs off some errors the other team made. In the end they won 12-8. We left about the 7th inning when they were up 10-2, so they lost some ground in those last innings, but were able to keep the win.
Afterwards, we did more shopping for the house (more on that in another blog) and grabbed some dinner. A very fun day... looking forward to seeing some more games this summer, especially with friends and family! (We got their schedule on our new magnet below!)
