Slightly delayed post here because unfortunately, as were numerous baseball games! The weather really seemed to be against getting any kind of work done within the past week, with two games getting postponed and getting heavily delayed.

On Monday, a team from Wilmington, NC was supposed to travel our way and face us at home. It rained all day however, pushing the game to a doubleheader (two games in one night) on Friday. But on Friday however, it rained Thursday night and flooded the field, postponing the same team yet again! The doubleheader is now scheduled for the 25th, but honestly, I’m skeptical about it happening…This game just does not want to be played!

Thankfully, we were able to get a game in on Wednesday, and it was business as usual. I was able to get some great pictures, and I finally figured out how to film in HD on my DSLR camera! A little shaky without a tripod, sure, but still better than the quality an iPhone camera produces.

Tonight however, was even better. The game got delayed for an hour due to a wet field, but that meant for some great footage of players/fans messing around. A limbo contest started up between the fans and the home team, and I got to be in the center of the action filming the entire thing! The crowd also seemed oddly energized, so I got a lot of awesome footage of what was hip and happening away from the field.

I’m still having a ton of fun with this internship, but I do need a bit of a breather after this long game tonight! Thankfully the next game isn’t until this Friday…assuming it doesn’t get rained out.
