**Any baseball-related plans this season?** 1. Attend Opening Day!! Fri 09 Apr, Rockies at Giants. 2. Watch the World Series 3. Attend an uncrowded weekday Mets game, I live 20 minutes away from Citi Field 4. Do a mini road-trip (COVID permitting) to follow the La Crosse Loggers of the Northwoods League [[About the NWL - Northwoods League : Northwoods League](https://northwoodsleague.com/about-nwl/about/)]. 5. Watch a lot of Astros games on TV, attend 1 or 2 Corpus Christi Hooks(AA farm club for the Astros) games. 6. Hopefully attend a Texas Rangers game at their new stadium which I couldn’t do last year. Though I did get to go to a World Series game there last year. 7. Watch the Chicago Dogs play a game. 8. Attend the final game, Fan Appreciation Day. They give away a lot, R/T air tix for 2, and the grand prize is a new pickup truck. C’mon now, 1 in 45,000, those odds aren’t too bad, right? 9. Attend a Long Island Ducks game with fireworks show if we can get tickets, they sell out fast 10. Hope to get to at least one Cleveland Indians game in person 11. Perhaps, travel to Atlanta and catch a Braves game, ideally on Aug 27-28-29 when the Giants are in town. This would complete my personal tour of the 30 MLB ballparks. Maybe I should do it! ---
