Oakland Athletics, Team of the Future


This past weekend we took Virginia to the A's game. She is sort of an old pro by now. We are counting this as her fourth official game, since we came with Virginia when Leslie was 3 days overdue with her. Virginia had her usual awesome time.

Note to parents out there: the Westside Club in the Coliseum offers sit down service, with carpeted floors, room for babies, and a great view of the game, from the club level. The prices are surprisingly reasonable, with my cheeseburger and fries costing $12 -- no more than what they would cost at the concession stand downstairs. Wormy got to watch the game from our right-next-to the-window table and crawl around on the carpet afterwards. One hundred percent worth it.

Virginia also checked out Stomper's fun zone, which has kids' games, toys, and space to roam around. She was especially concerned with mowing the artificial turf there.

Oh, and it happened that the A's cranked against the Cleveland Indians. They eventually won 11-0, with Chavez delivering multiple doses of pain. Virginia is now sitting atop the AL West all-time winning percentage standings. Her record at A's games sits at a sparkling 4-0.
