During the baseball game, the players that arent up to bat are supposed to be seated on the bench cheering on their team mates... Most of the time, though they are spitting sunflower seads, squirting their water bottles at each other tossing a ball around, climbing the fence.... I could go on and on..... It took me about 3 or 4 tries before I was able to get a photo of them all sitting along the bench and it still didnt turn out like I was intending.... But It will have to do.
Baseball, to me, is still the national pastime because it is a summer game. I feel that almost all Americans are summer people, that summer is what they think of when they think of their childhood. I think it stirs up an incredible emotion within people.
