Altoona Curve
v Reading Phillies
These shots were taken during the pre-game team announcements
The Phillies were going with a lefthanded pitcher
and Brett was starting the game on the bench
Altoona Curve player #3 is Brandon Chaves
Does it look cold???
Here are some excerpts from the game reports
Nice weather also
didn't arrive on this night
The game time temperature was 42 degrees
The reading represented a game time high
(!! USA 42degreesF == AUS 5.5degreesC !!)
Despite see-your-breath cold and pestering drizzle, some spirited
fans attended the game,
including a group that started a "Let's Go Curve" chant
with one out in the sixth inning
By the time the 3 hour 31 minute game ended, fewer than 400 people
remained in the ballpark
