There are more recent ones but that showed up on my Google search.

Home team ok maybe, but I think the road team should play for more than 1 run. Also with a guy at 2nd you have 3 chances for a base hit instead of just 2, with one of those chances being Cano (although if the first guy failed, Cano would still have been walked)

Dinosaur throws out first pitch.

Edit: It's a T-Rex. He predictably short-arms it.
Hold on, I'm trying to see if Jack London ever gets this fire built or not.

It's gonna be fun when they finally bring George Springer up in 2017 and he tears an ACL on it.
I know, because its caused so many devastating injuries already!

Ahhh, well with that as your barometer everybody should be fine.
Bump. Was funny to read this back and forth given Houston's revival. Also, Tal's Hill gets a one-year reprieve from the dustbin of history. Houston says they can't renovate Minute Maid in time for next season.

Don't they own shovels?
My avatar corresponds on my place in the Swamp posting list with the all-time Home Run list. Number 45 is Paul Konerko with 439.

Ha. Assuming moving the walls and adding seats is the bigger issue. I admit I don't understand why it can't get done in six months, but apparently there's a cricket match there (of all damn things) in November mucking this up.
