I wake up and its 4 in the freggin morning with my parents screaming in my ear to wake up. Im about to embark on a 4 and a half hour journey to my cousins house and later the O's game. About an hour later jersey screws up again and im stuck in stopped traffic, for ten minutes we didnt even move and I walked around cars until they finally started going again. By the time we get to my cousins house its 10 oclock, we eat, talk( all the boring family stuff) and at around 3 we leave to go to the O's game.

Finally I waited all season for my parents to spend some money and go to the o's game. We get into to b-more and go to the muesum of legends or somethin. There was all this orioles history where I looked at pictures and texted when I was supose to be watching a video. The best part was the old man there before we got in,I was talking about my jets and ticked him off about super bowl three, for times sake I wont go into detail but my dad eventually punched me to stop.

Then the game. Theres nothing better then a game at the Yard, the food, atmosphere and fans are all amazing. I felt at home and the food,well its the best part. Boogs bbq pit has the best pork which is made like it is in the deep south. Then theres boogy signing s**t and whatever else you got, while telling a story or two.

0's vs Royals - Heres the best part- Nick hits a homerun...................or it seemed so, Gathright makes an incredible play to grab the ball before it goes over the fence but when he comes down the balls out of his glove and the right fielder cant decide what to do. Nick gets a triple and the scores 5-2.

Cabrera pitched an amazing game, there were times when he was off and let up a few runs but after the third he was on his game. A complete game with only two strikeouts but a win and thats all I can ask

details!!!!!

when you right, give sensory details. You know, what you saw, heard, tasted, smelled, felt. Use as many adjectives as possible. Longer is usually better.
