Classic Park, home of the Lake County Captains, the single A baseball team of the Cleveland Indians. They play in the Sally League, the South Atlantic League. Here at home they would being playing the Hagerstown Suns and the Orioles team, the Delmarva Shorebirds. It was raining earlier in the day and we were debating on whether or not to go but the sun looked like it would show so off we went. The park was only a couple miles from the hotel so we arrived with plenty of time. Once inside we head the game would start at 7:30 not 7, no problem. Then more rain and then it quit, game delayed 'till 8... OK. finally we get into out seats thanks to the usher who dried them for up. Then it was up and down, up and down. Great we got seats beside the hyper fat kid. Five minutes 'till 8 the rain started again. Lots of rain By 8:30 it was still raining and the sun was shining through under the clouds. At 8:50 the announcer said, "No game, doubleheader tomorrow. Fireworks start in 10 minutes" (see 1st picture). The fireworks were going as I tried to get a refund... no go. We thought about trading them for Sunday tickets and going long enough for the promotional giveaway but steady rain Sunday morning put us on our way home. I paid for my ticket, I sat in my seat it's official my ballpark score card now reads... Major League parks - 10, AAA - 1, AA - 3, A - 4, Indy - 1. My sons picture with the mascot... check (and the Chick-Fil-A cow).
