I had missed this, but my boy is on his way up. Called up to AA and making his first start for the B-Mets, D-O gets a win and puts up a nice line. Dylan Owen (W, 1-0) 6 IP 6 H 1 ER 2 BB 5 K

So after another test run at the local AAA ballpark I have decided that my three year old son is old enough and ready to take in a game at Shea. Being 350 miles from the park we only make it to 1-2 games per year. My parents live in the Hudson Valley and in the past they have watched both of the children while my wife and I have taken in games. This time they will watch Fgirl while Fboy and Mrs. Fman and I go to Flushing. He needs to go to Shea at least once before they blow it all up. I went to StubHub and bought three seats (in Mezzanine Reserved 3) to the next to last regular season game ever there, a Saturday 9/27 1 PM matinee against the Fish. It will be my son's first ever MLB game attended.
We took in some AAA ball here in Syracuse tonight. Saw the Chiefs beat the Rochester Red Wings 2-0 in a game that was over in 110 minutes. Helpful when you bring kids age 3 and 1 with you Saw as many Mets fans as Yankee fans out tonight. The recent good play I think is bringing out the Mets hats/shirts. Sat right next to a couple of Mets fans. All discussing the possibility that the Mets AAA team could be our own Syracuse club in '09.
