I just caught Atsunori Inaba's homerun!



edit: I should clarify that I got it on one bounce.

おめでとう!

Excellent! :D Congrats! I was feeling a bit bad that I caught that one home run ball next to you in BP at Yokohama, but you did a heck of a lot better!

*checks the scoreboard* Awww, they lost, but that's still 2/3 for the weekend... that's more than enough to keep Lotte and SoftBank at bay, ne?

oh man, they're getting their asses kicked by rakuten tonight. it's not pretty.

and yeah! ball! wheeeeeeeeeeeee! I got to KEEP my ball too :)

(Totally recording tonight's highlights.)

They had it on Gifu TV from the 5th inning onward, but I didn't see them replay the home run...

[teravell.livejournal.com]

Wow, that's SO COOL!!

Did you get to keep the ball?

[dr4b]

I did - and I think I'm going to bring it to geos and start a few class discussions on whether it's better to see sports/theater/music live or on tv/video at home...

also I am hoping to be in Nagoya on the 9/9 weekend for at least Sunday. are you also on a sun/mon off schedule?

[teravell.livejournal.com]

As a matter of fact, I am!! どっかで会おう？

[dr4b]

yeah! I dunno exactly what I'll end up doing -- I originally thought I might come down Saturday night and leave Monday afternoon but now I'm thinking more like coming down Sunday morning (arriving by noon?) and leaving Monday afternoon (at like 2-3pm?). Depends on whether I can get through to this cheap hotel that I was recommended.

I'm planning to go to the Chunichi Dragons baseball game on that Sunday evening with my other Gifu friend but aside from that I have no particular plan.

Dude doesn't that game start at 2 pm?

[dr4b]

shoot, it does. maybe I SHOULD come down sat night? problem is I wouldn't get in until 10pm...

There's also sports bars/restaurants to watch sports.

[jiggery-pokery.livejournal.com]

Superb! Is that your first one?

[dr4b]

Yup! Third baseball ever and first one during a game. Even better that it is by one of my favorite players :)

wow... catching a home run or foul ball were my 2 biggest "man I want to do that sometime during my life" baseball goals... still, no luck so far. Congratulations!!

Yay!

Do you get filmed on the news or just watch rerun sportsreels to see you catching the ball?
