Well, it was a birds’ weekend for the men in the family who rode all the way to Baltimore to see the Orioles win two games!  This year’s team is very exciting and is winning enough to be  contenders for their division.  The player who is getting the most attention is Chris Davis, the first baseman.  In this photo,  he is hitting one of  his 45 home runs this season. 

He is projected to hit 59  home runs by the end of the season and is chasing the 61 home run record  of Roger Maris. Maris was the first ever player to hit more than 60 home runs in one season in the year 1961.  Chris Davis has 115 RBIs and a batting average of .301. Fans of the Birds have had little to cheer about over the last seasons, but Chris Davis has changed that. And unlike some other prominent players, there have been no scandals involving Davis.

Happy fans with Birds’ hats, #1 fingers and orange shirts…time to cheer and eat . . . .

Hard to say goodbye after two winning games, home runs , peanuts, popcorn, and hot dogs. Yuck….and there is a  5 hour drive back to New York.

But great memories of a happy time . . . .  . .

Go Birds. . . . .

Namaste. . . . . .  .This is Baseball!
