The SL ASG was a blast. I had a great time. Didn't stay for the bottom of the ninth as a downpour happened and we needed to get Addison home and in bed.

I was watching it on MiLB.TV and it looked like it was really coming down. The broadcast was pretty funny as they kept the feed going during commercial breaks and some of the comments were "interesting" to say the least. When the rain came they were saying just swing at everything to get the game over. But when the batter finally hit an easy grounder to third base, the third baseman threw it into the stands because the ball was so wet.

Yeah. It began as a light mist. My wife and daughter went up to the concourse and I stayed. Then it came down, hard. I ran for cover as did most everyone else. They stopped the game and then a few minutes later, the hard stuff stopped. So, they started up again and as soon as they did, it started coming down again, but I think they wanted to keep playing. We went to the car.

 

Of course, it didn't help things that the game started 40 mins late because the homerun derby went overtime.
