What I Saw on the Way Home From Class Tonight
It’s been a week for baseball. I was driving from Manchester Craftsmen’s Guild on the North Side where I am editing a video portrait in a cool class. And I saw the lights! Took the Chestnut Street Exit and over the 16th St Bridge and around back to photograph the enticing light. Like Close Encounters of the Third Kind, a magnificent spacecraft landed. The sky aglow. Shot from the car at the red light. At Yankee Stadium in the game today, my cousin Lori threw out the first pitch and served as honorary bat girl for the Yankees.( click link underlined for short video clip of highlights)
If this scene doesn't make you want to buy a ticket and see the game, I don't know what would entice you.
After reading Lori’s story I will never look at the first pitch in the same way again. Thanks Ruthie for making us so much more aware – of life.
