Best Memories at the park

[jalex]

Don't post much, but this one is close to my heart...

My best ballpark memory is 1989, Wrigley Field, 1st game of the NLCS. I grew up in Indianapolis a Cubs fan, had been to Wrigley dozens of times on Summer trips, but I had no hope of going to a playoff game. The day before the game my dad won tickets to the first game. I couldn't believe it, but he spent the whole day at work at his desk calling the radio station trying to be the tenth-or-whatever caller to get tix to the game. We drove up the next day and had seats on the lower level, pretty high up and on the 3rd base side, but it was amazing. Cubs got killed that game. F'ing Will Clark hit two home runs for the Giants, but Ryno hit one out, he was my hero, and I got to witness the first Night playoff game in Wrigley history and my dad and I got to share a rare hot dog and he let me sip his beer... Definitely the best...
