A couple of days ago, a friend sent me an email and asked me to post some photos of the baseball series this past weekend.

I've never tried to shoot a baseball game so yesterday I threw my stuff in the truck and headed to campus. For the first try, the photos here and here aren't too bad.

However, the series didn't turn out the way we had hoped. For more on the games, see Brent Harris' excellent coverage on the sports page. I just hope Coach Stevens doesn't have me thrown out the next time I show up with my camera. You know how superstitious those baseball guys are...
