Kobe & Hiroshima Home Opener

Well, we finished our road trip in Kobe, with Mike pitching in the final game of the trip. He came in for the 7th inning, gave up one hit, and got 3 ground ball outs. We came back to Hiroshima on Thursday night and had our Season Home Opener at our new stadium last night (Friday). It was so much fun! The stadium is beautiful and they had a really nice ceremony for the guys on the field before the game. We had a day game today and our starter pitched a complete game shutout, so it gave our bullpen a much needed rest. Tomorrow is the final game before an off day on Monday. I will update you if Mike pitches tomorrow. Here are some pictures of the road trip and some of the new stadium.  I will take more of the stadium tomorrow!

Mike pitching in Kobe, it was packed!

Waiting to see if Daddy is coming in to pitch

Can you point Mike out?  Of course, the tallest one!
