- Fine summer weather after a rainy weekend.
- Both teams hit home runs, but the Berries’ home run was for three, and the Corvallis Knights’ was for two.
- We got to hang out a bit with the color commentary guy, who also hosts the trivia night we go to every week.
- The scoreboard wasn’t always totally accurate, but they figured it out after a while.
- The mascot “Barry” (a bear who loves berries) offered me a fist bump, then faked me out and tried to flip my hat.
- We met several fellow Padres fans, including an old guy who was extremely excited to show me his Chargers tattoo.
- Elementary kids playing catch on the sidelines and having a visibly wonderful time.
- Very nice picnic tables to sit on after my sore back could no longer handle the bleachers experience.
- There was a sellout crowd that seemed eager to support their brand new baseball team.
- The Knights score five runs in the top of the ninth inning, but the Berries still won 14-7.
