Looks like our heart and positive attitude paid off Thursday night! I was away on a business trip for what seemed like the world’s longest week, and very disappointed at missing the Nat’s series against the Braves. However my day took a turn for the better, when I found the game on TBS from hotel TV. I tuned in just in time to see the Nat’s take the lead for the first time this season, and watch Chad Cordero close the game. That night, alone in my hotel room was the first time I felt like an honest to goodness baseball fan.

When the girls and I started attending games last summer, it was a way for me to get out of my apartment and learn something new. While exploring a new city, and learning a new job, baseball became my new hobby. I followed and cheered for National’s in 2006, however, it was not until last Thursday night, alone in a hotel room thousands of miles away from home and screaming like a crazy person, that I realized I was a die hard fan. Watching the Chief pitch the end of the game was the perfect way to remind me how much I love the game.
