As I mentioned in my post about the opening day game, we did Chase field backwards. Game first, stadium tour second. Normally, I wouldn’t want to do it this way, but I’m still glad we did the tour, because it was one of the more informative that we’ve been to. First, you walk in, and there’s this atrium area with some cool art type images all around. I’m normally not into that sort of thing, but it was a nice touch- all of it was of local stuff, which was cool.

Game 2 of our Sunday doubleheader was another Suns game. We weren’t sure initially whether we wanted to go to two Suns games- they weren’t very good and we figured we could find something else to do with our time there. But we had such a great time on Thursday that we decided to do it. This time, Joel’s friend Riley joined us, and they were playing the Rockets, who had MVP candidate James Harden balling out for them. We were excited for what we thought would be another rousing game!
Opening Day. I love all sports, but my favorite has to be baseball. I am probably one of the few people who don’t think the baseball season is too long- ask me the day after any of the 162 games of the Red Sox season and I will be able to tell you who won, who pitched, who scored the runs, and probably a few other random facts. I’m obsessed. I look forward to Opening Day all winter, and by an awesome twist of fate, Arizona was hosting one of the few Sunday Opening Day games (most teams started Monday). They were chosen because, along with Tampa Bay, it was their 20th season since joining the league. Their opponent was division rival San Francisco Giants with their ace Madison Bumgarner. We were not optimistic about the quality of team Arizona would field- they’d struggled in recent years- but the Giants were always good, right?
