Stockton Ports vs. Bakersfield Blaze, July 11 10

Yo.

I’m not dead!  I feel happyyyyyyyy!  I think I’ll go for a walk…

Ahem.

Mr. Poppy and I, and batgirl and her trusty sidekick (Bobin?) will be trekking to Banner Island on Saturday, July 11 to see the Baby A’s take on the Bakersfield Blaze at 7:05 p.m.  We’ve been floating this idea for a while, and now that I’m done with school and she’s done with her office move, we have more brain cells to spare for actually keeping track of who else wants to go!

I’m going to order “MVP”-level tickets, around the infield, which will be $12 each (including service charge and mailing).  If you want to come along and make it a real clusterFK, please email me at distantsun7@gmail.com and let me know how many tickets you’ll want.  I’ll also need to receive payments before I order tickets (Student + Floundering Startup = Unhappy Budget).  I can take PayPal, account is the same as my email address, or we can make other arrangements… but I’d like to have a final count and money by June 11, please…

[~In related news… oblique is selling tickets to the Ports vs. SJ Giants game in San Jose July 25 as a fundraiser for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society.  Email him at mthanawala@gmail.com before the end of next week if you’re interested in that one.~]

There's a wild thing in the woolshed and it's keeping me awake at night.

    I’m definitely interested but far too engulfed in chaos to commit for certain just yet. But perhaps I’ll have my advanced planning shit together by the June 11 commitment deadline.

    Thanks for taking the lead in organizing the details, Poppy.

    Don’t forget FKers, this is “A’s Night featuring Archie Gilbert Bobblehead and throwback A’s Jersey Auction!” I still don’t have a clue who Archie Gilbert is, but I’ll be deligted to have him in doll form.

    What’s the shade-vs-sun profile in those seats? If they’re shaded, tentative “maybe” for me & mb jr & mrs mb.

      It’s an evening game, and I’m assuming the infield seats will be in the first-shaded area as the sun sets approximately behind home plate in most ballparks.

      But… ASSUMPTION ALERT!

      I don’t know for sure.

          I’ve never understood that expression…

            Me either, but it’s very lyrical

        Yup – the first base line runs roughly S from home plate.

    I always thought “Stockton Ports” spoonerized nicely.
