Spring Training is a great place to get up close to your favorite Cardinal players... and that is just what we did. Before the two games we went to we spent some time at the practice fields to watch the cards warming up. It is so neat to literally stand behind the fence and watch them take batting practice just a few feet away! The coaches are there giving advise to them and they guys talk to eachother about everything! Many of the players also sign autographs. It's funny to see how intense some of the adults are about getting autographs.. they will even push in front of the poor little kiddos! Alex helped us get some signatures and Jerry's favorite was Anthony Reyes... he was like a little kid getting that autograph! One I really wanted was Scott Rolen as he has been my fav player for the past few years... to the point that I like to call him my boyfriend. He wasn't signing the days we were there :( oh well. Roger Dean Stadium where the Cards play is quite small so you are pretty close to the field... one day we were onyl 4 rows from the first base line... pretty cool! I have more pics to post but I will save them for later!
