Since six flags was rained-out, the best part of our class trip to Atlanta this weekend was the meeting of former Oakland A's teammates Mark Mulder a Tim Hudson at satan's palace Tuner Field. I rooted for the not-Braves (Cardinals) and wore my Mets hat in spite of the Braves fans. I was also the only kid in my class to bring his baseball glove (catcher's mitt) and if the wind decided to blow the ball a section over I would have walked away with an Albert Puljos homer.
It was the tacit consent of my friend Brian and I to sit together, being the only die-hard baseball fans in the grade. He is a Mariners fan and decided to root for the Cardinals also. The baseball n00b next to us (blogger #2) decided at the very end to suddenly root for sell his soul to the Braves. However in the ninth inning, superstitious baseball fans prevailed over a crowd of thousands as Brian and I chanted, in a language we weren't sure existed, "Ho-Si-Min-Tao" at different times during the pitchers wind up. Of course it worked every time and the cardinals closed the game, winning 6 to 5.

Thanks to you all for cheering for the Cards. The Braves are evil.
