Burley Family Happenings: Tiger's Game

Last week Thurday, Grandma, mom, Kelsea and Kolton went to our annual Tiger's game. This was our 3rd year going - the kids have such a great time, and so the adults! We sat right behind Ordonez (#30 - Grandma's FAVORITE player) in the right field stands. Ordonez would throw a ball into the stands after a few warm-up throws with the center fielder, and Kelsea caught one of those balls! She was SO excited! Her little brother, however, was not so happy - he thought the ball was meant for him...Kelsea, being the great kid that she is, gave the ball to her brother. Probably the BEST part of the whole game was that the TIGERS WON!! I have been to 4 games in my life, and they always lost when I was there! I was starting to think I was bad luck for them. They were not on a good streak with Toronto last week, so I had my doubts of them pulling out a win, but they did it! Bottom of the 8th - they brought in 5 runs! What an exciting finish to an already great game. They held Toronto off top of the 9th, and the game was over. Tigers won 5-1!! Here are some of the pics from the game... The four of us...
