First TinCaps Game!

On Tuesday night, we took Austin to his first Fort Wayne TinCaps Baseball game. Jared received tickets to one of the suites from work. The TinCaps just started off their season a week or so ago in their brand new stadium, located in downtown Fort Wayne. Fort Wayne has had a Minor League Baseball team for years, formerly known as the Fort Wayne Wizards. With the new stadium, came a new name. At first we thought that the TinCaps was a pretty lame name, but it's starting to grow on us. It originates from Johnny Appleseed, who's gravesite is located in Fort Wayne (for those of you who may not know). It was cold and rainy (about 45-50 degrees......maybe). The crowd turnout wasn't very good as you can see from the pictures (it has actually been sold out so far), but he still enjoyed looking around and watching the game. We sat outside a little bit, with him bundled up. He had on three shirts, two hats, thick pants, and a blanket. As you can see in the picture above, he was pretty warm. Jared and I actually took turns having Austin on our lap so he could keep us warm! Leave it to Indiana to have this sort of weather in the middle of April! The stadium was amazing, and is a great addition to our downtown area. The tickets are more affordable, and you can even sit in the lawn on the outfield! We will probably end up going back in summer months again, and can't wait to take Austin back. My apologies to Uncle Chris, who wanted to be here to take Austin to his first game.....maybe you can take him to his first game when it's actually nice out and not 40 degrees and raining!
