On bleacher seats

I can't remember the last time I chanted "Beat LA"- it was awesome. I went to the Giants/Dodgers game last night, and with the series tied at one a piece, I was lucky enough to get to witness the rubber match. We sat in the fourth row of the center field bleachers which was awesome for us, but not for Matt Kemp, the Dodgers centerfielder. We singled him out and heckled him so much, which was a lot of fun (telling him he's a bum and that he sucks), and even got a rise out of him when the crowd started chanting "Rhianna...Rhianna..."

The security at AT&T was crazy because of the incident in LA not to long ago. Tons of rowdy people, from both sides, were escorted out of the ballpark and it was not the right time or place to be a Dodger fan, especially because the Giants won 4-3! Wilson got the save, so we all got to see the beard, and it's always great to beat your rivals, especially at home.

It didn't matter that it was freezing cold because the bleachers felt like the right place to be. The Giants fans were bleeding orange and black, yelling and booing Dodger fans as they went up and down the aisles, drowning out their pitiful cheers. There was so much spirit in our section with all the hats, jerseys, and signs. It got so loud when Sandoval and Fontenot (the third string second-baseman) both hit solo shots in the bottom of the sixth to put us ahead- everyone went crazy. Beat LA! Beat LA! Beat LA!

What a great game. Baseball really is the best sport.
