Completely Unexpected

We had a great time at the ball park yesterday. The outcome was completely unexpected though. The Braves were playing the Mariners, the team with the worst record in MLB. What I didn't tell you is that I have pulled for the Mariners for a long time. I think I started to like all things Seattle (except politics) after watching "Sleepless in Seattle." Yes, I love the Seahawks and Seattle is an amazing city. It is hard to beat a July 4th in on Pike Place.

Anyway, I went to the game wearing red and blue for the Bravos, not expecting the opportunity to celebrate a Mariners victory. I also did not want to have to explain to 40 people why I was pulling for the other team. The game started innocently enough, Braves went up by a run and then everything changed by the 7th inning. The Mariners ended up winning 10-2! So in my first MLB game, I got to watch my favorite team and enjoy a win too.

Fear not Braves fans. All was set right with a 5-4 victory on an RBI single in the bottom of the 9th in game two.
