 “Play Ball” Cedar Park, 2025

Spring training for the 2025 MLB season has started. I almost don’t want the new season to begin because 2024 was such an amazing season for Dodger fans. But I guess 2025 has the possibility to be even better!

 “Dell Diamond” Round Rock, 2024

This evening we went to see the Dodger’s minor-league baseball team play the local Round Rock Express. Yoshinobu Yamamoto was pitching for Oklahoma City in a rehab assignment as he gets ready to rejoin the Dodgers. It was fun to see one of MLB’s superstars up close!

 “Dodgers vs Yankees” Cedar Park, 2024

I spent part of the evening watching the Dodgers play the Yankees. Two of the powerhouses of baseball this year, meeting in the Bronx for the first time since 2016 I believe. It was a great game (the Dodgers won)!

 “Dodger Stadium” Los Angeles, 2021

Today was “Los Angeles Day” for us, starting with a trip up the 405 to check out UCLA. Just like UCI was a nostalgic for me since that is where I spent four years, UCLA brought back many memories since I worked there for a couple of years. It didn’t have quite the magical feeling of my UCI visit though. I guess it’s because my UCLA days were when I was a working adult, whereas my UCI days were from a much different time of my life.

 “Bruin” Los Angeles, 2021

We walked around for a while, and Koa liked the campus (the weather in California is so nice as compared to Texas!). It’s so fun to go to each campus and imagine the different versions of the future for him.

And being a graphic designer, I had to admire and photograph a poster that I really liked:

 “Social Distance” Los Angeles, 2021

In the early evening, we headed east to Dodger Stadium to watch the Dodgers host the Cubs. It was the first time for Koa to see a game at Dodger Stadium (Bay has been a couple of times before). We sat in the right field pavilion, where we could see Mookie Betts and Cody Bellinger. It was not a good day for the Dodgers as they were no-hit by the Cubs, but it was a beautiful evening at an awesome stadium, rooting for our team along with a capacity crowd. Super fun!!!

I haven’t sat in the bleachers since 1988, but it was awesome – definitely a different vibe from sitting closer to the plate. Although farther from the action, the energy is higher (most waves start out here) and you feel more connected to your fellow fans. I recommend it!
