The True Blue LA Roadtrip - Update

by Eric Stephen on Jun 15, 2009 9:47 AM PDT in Events Comment 26 comments

We are planning to have a True Blue LA get together on Friday, July 3 at Petco Park in San Diego. That just so happens to be the first day Manny Ramirez is eligible to return from his 50-game suspension.

I have to purchase tickets in advance, so I want to see how many people are interested (perhaps we can qualify for a group discount).

The seats will probably be in the upper infield reserved section, which is $22.50 per ticket if there is no group discount.

If you are interested in attending this game, please indicate in the comments below.

UPDATE 6/15/09:

I'm buying tickets this week, so please indicate your interest in the comments below, or by emailing me at ericdstephen@gmail.com.

I should be able to make it, and would probably try to go saturday and sunday as well.

Why in San Diego rather than a game at Dodger Stadium?

Just because it’s the “Return of the Manny” game, I guess? (Yeah, yeah “just so happens to be…”)

Too far from Santa Barbara (where I live). Another time.

We found that we have a rather large group of San Diego posters.

Dodger Stadium is in the plans too

this just happens to be the first game of our “get together” series. I am working on a San Bernardino meet-up for a 66ers game too.

I saw the game at Camelback Ranch when Manny returned to the Dodgers after the previous hiatus.

He struck out, and got out every at-bat. But the next game he got a home run. (And the last one he’d get for several weeks, well into the regular season.) His first game back could be something like that again. You might want to aim for the first or second home game…

I will most likely be going. Perhaps two people.

Eric

aren’t the chances nil that Manny would be activated on the major league roster on his first game back? I’ve seen a profile that says he may not face major league pitching until after the all-star game.
