Pittsburgh

On Labor Day, we went to Pittsburgh for a Pirates/Cubs game.  Pittsburgh is only about two hours away from us, so it wasn't a bad drive at all.  The weather was gorgeous and it was a 4:00 game.  The boys had a blast cheering on the Cubs and seeing a new ball park.  Matt and I went to Pittsburgh to watch a Pirates/Cardinals game when we were first married, but the boys had never been. Landon and Keegan got autographs before the game from Rene Rivera and Wilson Contreras, so they were really excited! We had amazing seats, in the 3rd row right to the left of the Cubs dugout at the on deck circle.  The players were really close to us! Since the Pirates were winning big, we left in the 8th inning so we could get home at a decent time.

Landon made this sign that said, "Will do burpees for a bat!"  Several players read the sign, but he didn't get a bat.  Maybe next time!

This was the view from our seats

Kris Bryant getting ready to hit.  This is how close we were to the players and the on deck circle.  My friends (Autumn & Brittany) are obsessed with Kris Bryant so I took this for them :)

The boys stood here for a second between innings and ended up getting two balls handed to them from the bat boy.  They were pretty excited!

What a fun day!
