Kathie and I attended our third spring training game yesterday, this time with Dick and Rina. The Cubs' home in Mesa has lots of nods to Wrigley Field, including this sign, which we of course needed as a backdrop for a photo.
At all of the spring training parks, the concessions feature items that one might find back home at the club's regular season park. Dick found an enormous hot dog, one that was surely a foot long, that was covered with all kinds of condiments, and which may have approached $1 per inch in cost.
It was a fun game to watch, even though the Cubs lost to the Dodgers by a score of 7 to 3.
By the way, if you read my prior posting, you will recall that we heard Wayne Messmer sing with the jazz group on Monday night. We arrived at the game just in time yesterday to hear him belt out the National Anthem, which, as I said, he frequently does back in Chicago.
