....and find I'm top of the heap (or should that be bunt), A number one!!





Oh yes - we did it again, we (the Anaheim Angels) beat the Yankees but this time in style as we beat them at the brand spanking new Yankees Stadium. Even with the mighty Jeter on form and slugging the ball for miles they still couldnt get anywhere near us Angels - great result, great day and even better the weather was warm and sunny.

Notable differences between baseball in California and New York. Firstly no decent beer on sale, drinking in the grounds is definitely not encouraged - you would burst before you got drunk on Bud Light!! It's on the end of a train (Metro this time just to make even more confusion) line in the middle of concrete bridges and tunnels - in Anaheim its in the middle of almost an industrial site with nothing for miles so a car is essential. There is a lot of after match drinking and partying as lined up all along the outside of the stadium are bars and bars and more bars. In Anaheim you simply get in your car and drive home.
