Alas, Poor Mets!
Monday night was Stitch 'n Pitch at Citifield -- my first visit to the Mets' new stadium. It was a far cry from old Shea... a beautiful jewel of a ballpark. The sight lines are terrific and the scoreboard is so clear, making it extremely easy to follow the game. Unfortunately, the game was one I would like to forget. The Mets fell behind by four in the top of the first inning and it was downhill from there -- final score: Braves 11, Mets 3.
At least the weather was perfect, as was the company. Janice and I were seated seated with a bunch of others KIPing and crocheting. We saw Nicky Epstein and Shirley Padden at the Stitch 'n' Pitch table before the game, promoting their newest books. Janice is already planning to make a scarf or hat in Mets colors for next year!

Mary, exactly my sentiments!! Loved Citifield, especially seeing it for the firs time, it was exciting. As to the actual game it was so sad to see the Mets lose (so fast)! Still, it was a great experience! We did have fun, even though things didn't go well for the Mets. I was very impressed to see so many of the knitters wearing handmades in Mets colors. That will be me next year!
GO METS. jANICE
