The Round Rock Express are playing Omaha Storm Chasers. When we arrived there was a wedding going on, actually on the diamond - why I am surprised I do not know as they do that at football matches in the UK too. After a round of applause (for the wedding couple) we wandered off, got drinks, looked at the team shop (great shirts and caps) and went and found our seats behind third base. Great view - Darcy and Cedah were hoping to catch a ball to take home - alas it didn't happen!
The game finished with the Storm Chaser winning 9-3 - Round Rock Express blew it in the 8th innings (big time)! There was plenty of entertainment involving the crowd in between innings and they even had a 'stretch session after 7th inning! Lots of flashing lights and messages appearing on the electronic display boards encouraging the crowds to 'make some noise'. Last of all was a firework display as it was July 4th weekend which was pretty good. We had a great time and all agreed we should do it again.... maybe even become Round Rock Express supporters?!
