Are you ready for some baseball?

Aah...spring. Daffodils, trees turning green and baseball!
Today was my first official day as an usher for the Tulsa Drillers.
The team put on a big open house so the fans could get out and
see the new ball field. The weather was absolutely perfect and
thousands of Tulsans came on over to Oneok field to check out the
new digs.




I spoke to many fans and the unanimous opion was - "this is a great
ballpark." It really is - and was designed completely with the fans
in mind. A concourse encircles the entire field - so you can walk around
and see the game from ANY angle. There's a great playground for kids
behind center field. Really - there isn't a bad seat to be had!

Here's a shot of the press box looking up from the home dugout area.













Hornsby is ready for opening night - April 8. We had such a great crowd today and the opening game is officially SOLD OUT!! Way to go fans!










The scoreboard is up and working - looks so good. The music was rocking with songs I know and like (ha!!). I mostly had to ask adults not to sit on top of the dugout, and everyone was agreeable. No worries there. I had a really good time - even if my legs and feet and kinda tired!






Hope everyone out there has a Happy Easter!
