We were part of a record crowd (9,140) at Joker Marchant Stadium in Lakeland for the Red Sox/Tigers game. We bypassed our bleacher seats for a spot in the grass. Either way, there was no shade, which was desperately needed. It was sunny and hot, though thankfully not humid. We didn't last the whole game, but we were there long enough to enjoy pizza, ice cream, lemonade, visiting with nearby fans (Cooper managed to find two guys from Dallas and engage in serious Mavs conversation) and baseball, of course. There was even a bench-clearing brawl.
Before the game, we walked three miles around one of Lakeland's many lovely parks.
More photos from our Saturday adventures are here. (You'll notice that Steve was still dealing with Bell's palsy. He recovered amazingly quickly over the course of our vacation and is now almost 100 percent better!)
