Diamondbacks Home Run at the Chase Field Pool

It's taken a couple of days of chores, fixing a car tire (we returned from Phoenix with a nail in the rear and that took two trips to Costco yesterday), and baking this morning (our son's 31st birthday) before I could sit down and share this fun photo from the Thursday night game at Chase Field.  The Diamondbacks beat the Cubs 3-1 and I so enjoy watching the art of the game, the families in the stands and the kinds-goofy but entertaining between innings race of the hot dogs.  I always root for mustard to beat ketchup and relish and this time, Mustard Dog won!

When the Dbacks player hits a home run (and the stadium dome is closed), the splash fountain at the pool shoots up water.  We found out the pool rents for $5,000 and "seats" 32 people, so while it's fun to look at, we won't be hosting a pool party there anytime soon.  Still, it costs nothing to see or to photograph, so enjoy the memory.

When you go to a baseball game--what types of action do you most enjoy?
