Atlanta Braves @ Los Angeles Dodgers (game 2)

I arrived in plenty of time for this game, and I knew how to get to my seat, as it was the same seat as yesterday.  The traffic is really heavy around the stadium, so it's handy that one lane in each direction is coned off for the use by the Dodgers Express bus.

You get some superb views of the downtown cityscape from the stadium, which is very high up.

 Tonight, I saw Clayton Kershaw pitch, and saw him do some rare things: he walked somebody, he singled and scored the winning run, and he committed a balk.

He clearly wasn't happy with the balk call, but Chase Utley came over from 2nd to step in to talk to the umpire about it instead, presumably trying to stop Kershaw getting tossed for arguing it.  Strangely, Dave Roberts didn't come out of the dugout to take over the arguing until Utley had, apparently, sorted it all out. Usually, the managers are right out there to protect their players. I thought that was a little strange.

Even from the seats you get views of the Hollywood hills.


Tonight's Kiss Cam was largely devoted to one man making a marriage proposal - and she said yes!
