Andrew likes to watch baseball with Brian and whenever he sees it on TV he will yell "Let's Go Giants!" Brian decided that it was time to take Andrew to his first game for his birthday. We had to explain to Andrew that a baseball park is different from the park that we go to with a playground on it but once he got it, we were good to go! Andrew had a great time and enjoyed being at the game. Between each inning, we would run down to the field and wave our sign that said it was Andrew's first game. Melky Carbrera is the Giant's outfielder and he throws balls into the crowd between each inning. Towards the end of the game we were getting discouraged but didn't give up. Between the 8th and 9th inning, Melky threw two balls into the crowd. We thought that was it but then he walked over to the side and personally handed Andrew his own ball. The section that we were sitting in went wild with excitement and we are now die hard Melky fans!! Andrew will tell everyone that he sees " I have a Melky ball." (That leads me to explain what a Melky ball is!). The game ended with a Giant's win so it was a perfect day!
Andrew and his first game sign
So excited to be at the game
Besides getting a ball, Andrew's favorite part was eating cotton candy
#53 is Melky. We love him!
