A couple of Scott’s dental friends were going to a Brewers
game and invited us along. The Brewers are actually doing really well this year
so we were excited to go. I need to learn to be better at taking pictures,
because this is the only picture that we got while we were at the game. The
Brewers won the game, but it was close pretty much the entire time.
The highlight of the night for me was getting hit by a ball.
Ryan Braun hit a foul ball, and it came straight toward us. I guess everyone
else’s reaction is to try and catch the ball; mine was to lean into Scott and shield
my face. The odds were slim that it would hit right where I was sitting anyway,
at least that is what I thought until the ball hit me. I’m not exactly sure how
it happened, maybe it hit my chair first and me? My side stung for a couple
minutes afterward, but I was fine. The girl sitting in front of me was the
person who ended up with the ball, and all I got was a bruised hip area. For a
couple of days I couldn't lay on my left side without the bruise hurting for a
minute. It’s gone now, no permanent damage… I still can’t believe that I was
hit by a baseball during a game, our seats weren't even that close.
