We hit the road around 6am in order to make the trek from Pittsburgh to Toronto in time for the Blue Jays 1:07 P.M. game. Looking back on the previous night, it probably wasn’t such a great idea to get the Harry Potter book because it left us feeling quite exhausted. Nevertheless, we headed up […]
We arrived in Pittsburgh last night after our rained out game in Mahoning Valley and met up with our friend Suresh from Philadelphia, who will be joining us for the weekend. Friday morning Mike and I headed to the Andy Warhol Museum, an artist who is at the top of my list. The museum is […]
Mother Nature struck hard today as the rain came down hard in the Mahoning Valley area of Ohio. We did a raffle for about a half an inning before tons of rain poured down on the field and the stands, sending the fans into a panic as they began to flee towards the exits with […]
This afternoon was another Camp Day, this time at Jerry Uht Ballpark in Erie. This game in Erie marked my first time back in my home state since the beginning of the trip, and what can I say, this place is Erie-sistable. Seriously, they sell t-shirts at a shop across the street from the ballpark […]
Our first of three doubleheaders this week, we headed to see the Columbus Clippers for a 12pm game. Although we are done with Education Days, we now have to face a round of Camp Days, which are essentially the same thing. As a result, the raffles are pretty weak but the baseball is still in […]
Today the Tour for the Cure welcomes a new Tour member for the week, Mr. Michael Herman. Today we spent our time before the game at the Rock n’ Roll Hall of Fame, which we both thought was quite disappointing—except for the fact that you can see Michael Jackson’s glove rotating inside of a glass […]
It’s quite a long drive from Omaha to Grand Rapids, Michigan. Nevertheless, the Tour for the Cure made it in time for the 2pm Whitecaps Sunday game. We weren’t able to do a raffle or info table of any kind, but I did spend most of the game in the press box with the official […]
Welcome to Omaha, home of the College World Series. Johnny Rosenblatt Stadium is HUGE—it seats over 23,000 fans. Most of these seats are covered up and roped off during the Royals games, making the park seem very empty, even though there are usually 5,000 attending on average. There has been some talk of moving the […]
Friday night The Tour for the Cure headed up the road to Tulsa to Drillers Stadium to see none other than the Tulsa Drillers. The ballpark holds almost 11,000 people, making it the largest ballpark in Double-A baseball. Originally the park started out as a multi-purpose facility that seated just 4,800 but over time the […]
The weather was threatening to rain out the game, but luckily the stormy weather held off just long enough to squeeze in a “Neil Diamond Night” game at AT&T Bricktown Ballpark. We had a small raffle due to the fact that a lot of fans seemed to be scared off by the threatening weather. As […]
