Great night for baseball

After our hike today we headed out to see a spring training game (Rangers vs Brewers) in Surprise AZ. It was a 65 and clear evening so we dressed a little warmer than for the hike.
Josh Hamilton (one of my mom's favorite players) came up to the plate for the third time with a runner on first. He hits a shot to straight away center field, but the fielder jumps at the wall and robs him of a home run. The runner on first is half way to third and has to double back, but gets caught in a double-play back a first ending the inning.
Josh comes back to first to wait for his glove and cap and I couldn't resist yelling,
“Josh, it ended up being just a long double play.”
He then holds his index finger and thumb to show, 'missed it by that much.'
Mike and I were thinking when have you ever made eye contact with a major league player?

Great seats hey buddy?
