Schedule Update

Well, as we're getting closer to the summer, the schedule's firming up more. We're missing the Phillies/Boston game and spending an extra day in NYC, and we're extending the trip by a day to make a wedding in Kentucky on the way back. We're also still working on getting a couple of the tickets. Getting reasonably priced seats at Fenway has proved difficult, as they're going on eBay for about $300 for 4 seats. I keep waiting for a good deal, but sooner or later I'll just have to give in. We're also not buying the tickets to the minor league games in advance to avoid the "convenience fees" they charge for buying it online. I don't think we'll have much trouble getting good seats for a low-A game in Clinton, IA on a Thursday night...

Here's the updated schedule with purchases in bold:

6/11 - Nashville Sounds [Milwaukee AAA] at Oklahoma Redhawks [Rangers AAA]
6/12 - Texas Rangers at Kansas City Royals - Outfield Plaza next to the Rangers' bullpen
6/13 - Philadelphia Phillies at St. Louis Cardinals - LF Upper Deck
6/14 - Los Angeles Dodgers at Detroit Tigers - not sure, but my uncle got them from someone who got them from Mike Illitch (the Tigers' owner), so they're probably pretty good
6/15 - Chicago Cubs at Toronto Blue Jays - Upper Deck, 1B side
