The Pitch

It was an exciting night at the ballpark! At least for the Gibbins family! It was hot, hot, hot but we witnessed Granddaddy Doug throwing out the first pitch at the Ranger game! It was an honor and something we will always remember. Friends and family were there to celebrate and here are some scenes from the evening! Dad and I got to go into the media room while we waited and Nolan Ryan came in for a TV interview! We were surprised to see him and we stood in awe and watched as greatness strolled by! He didn't talk to us, but he smiled and went over to the camera. I am sure if he had spoken to us, he would have been really nice! Ha! Ha! The entire evening was great fun!

The windup! The actual pitch photo was blurry! :(
