June 22nd

I woke up this morning at 8:30 to eat the hotels continental breakfast and it turned out to be pretty disappointing. They had bagels, muffins, and cereal but they didn't have any hot food. After I ate I went back up to the room to sleep for an hour and a half before we had to check out. Once everyone checked out at 11 we hung out in the of the rooms at the hotel til 12 then we took the bus to the outlet mall down the street to kill some time. Before I went to the mall I went with some of the guys to Primanti Bros to get some lunch. I got one of their signature sandwiches "the Pitts-Burger". It had two beef patties, cheese, French fries, and slaw all smushed in between two pieces of bread. It was pretty good but I didn't really like the slaw on the burger. After we ate I walked to the Polo and Reebok outlet stores. Since the mall was so big it was like a half mile walk. I didn't end up buying anything so I walked to where the bus picked us up and went back to the hotel. When we got back I just hung out and continued reading where I left off on the Steve Jobs Biography. So far I like it but I'm only a hundred pages in. When it was time to go tithe field everyone changed at the hotel and we drove to the park. After batting practice I went on a run around the town with another pitcher John Kuchno. It was a long run but felt good once we finished.
The game didn't go too well tonight and we struggled to hit the ball again. Our pitching didn't do well either because we let up 11 runs but I didn't throw tonight. I think the final score was 11-3. After the game they gave us all box dinner with a sandwich, pasta salad, grapes, and cookies. It was a very good post game meal and it hit the spot. Right now we're on our way back to Chilli where we will play Richmond in a two game series.
