Nathan and I had a date night last night!! And where did we go? The Ranger game of course!! We scored some awesome seats just 18 rows up from the field!! It's no secret that the ballpark is one of my favorite places to be and last night did not disappoint. The atmosphere and the game is just unbeatable. I know I say this with every Texas Ranger post on my blog, but I can't help it. I just love the smell of ballpark food, the sound of the baseball hitting off the bat or into a glove, the hustle and bustle of everyone trying to find their seats, all of the red & blue shirts, the hootin' and hollerin', God bless America during the 7th inning stretch, fireworks after a homerun, the dot race, and even those unruly people yelling at the opposing team! Last night we played the Yankees and there was a man in front of us that was clearly not a Yankee fan. He kept everyone laughing.
We got to the game a little late because we stopped for a quick dinner. We were expecting our seats to be on first base side, but were surprised to find we were right up from third base. It was pretty crowded in our section and we were smack dab right in the middle of our row, but we had a wonderful time.
Another one of my favorite things to do is to listen to the Rangers walk up songs! That's always interesting, sometimes funny, and sometimes surprising. There's nothing more that I love than a player having a Christian/Worship song as their walk up. Robinson Chirinos walked up to "Nothing is Impossible" by Planetshakers.
Through You,
I can do anything,
I can do all things,
For it's You who gives me strength,
Nothing is impossible
Rangers won 5-2!! #hellowincolumn So thankful for a night out with my love, and thankful for a mother in law who is always more than willing to watch our sweet boy!!

ReplyDeleteFUN! Love watching baseball!
ReplyDeletelove when a player uses his platform to bring Glory to God! Looks like a fun date night! :)
ReplyDeleteI love baseball games! It's such a fun, summertime activity! I grew up in New England and EVERYONE spent time at the ballpark, watching the Red Sox play. I'm pretty excited for football season though! My husband's got me hooked on it haha
ReplyDeleteSo fun!!! Being at the ballpark is one of the greatest places to be!
ReplyDeleteDate nights are oh-so important, and how lucky that you have such great help nearby!
We're big Royals fans, and try to catch them whenever they're playing in L.A.
I've never been at a baseball game. In my country it's not very known but it looks something very exciting.
ReplyDeleteLove that song choice!! We love going to Rangers games! It's gotten harder with a crazy one and a half year old, but I'm hoping we'll get a date night soon :)
ReplyDeleteI'm with you... there's just something about being out at the baseball stadium that makes it so much more fun. I love eating the stadium food and getting a beer and just being in the atmosphere. As you know, we are Angels fans over here, so I fully support the Rangers... until they play the Angels :) lol.
ReplyDeleteI am a die hard St. Louis Cardinals fan. I REALLY want to go see a game sometime soon. We always talk about it but never go. Glad you had so much fun!
