Spring Training Day 10 (Rick arrives!)

Monday, March 12, 2012 Day 274


Can you spot the cache? (you may have to zoom in)


Today Harris was looking forward to see the Mariners play the Texas Rangers, but before the game he did a few caches while on a bike ride. Game time temperature was 81 degrees and it was the a good game. The Mariners were up at the end of six innings 4-2 and won the game 6-4 with a great ending double play with a super short stop grab at a line drive and doubling the guy off of first. Another highlight was when Ichiro was heading home on a single and was called out by the ump when it was clearly a high tag. Ichiro was beside himself and had a few words with the ump (unusual considering he seldom questions umps and also because this was a spring training game). When I went behind home plate to get an inning of shade I spoke to a fan who took a picture of the slide and captured it showing that Ichiro was indeed SAFE with half his body over home plate as the tag was applied! Other fans suggested she post the picture online but as another person mentioned “Even umpires need a spring training”.

this one was down inside the grate for a cache called
"Beer for horses"


Rick texted that he should arrive around 7PM so Harris is pulling out the “good stuff”—roasted chicken, ranch cob salad, creamy mashed potatoes, and lemon meringue pie.
