Very First Baseball Game!

A couple of weeks ago I said to Ben, "We really should try to get Dex to a baseball game this summer." Three days later, I got an email from CC saying she had extra tickets for Monday night's White Sox game!  Dex loves CC so he was thrilled to see her. He sat next to her "all the way at the top".
CC taught Dex about all aspects of the game and he told her a lot of his jokes.
Dex enjoyed looking at details on the stadium (speakers, lights, scoreboards, the thingies that measure the speed and trajectories of the pitches).
Every now and again, he would get engrossed in the action on the field but after three innings, Dex turned to me and said, "I'm done with this now." We convinced him to stay for one more White Sox at-bat.


When we saw Dexy putting his head in the popcorn bucket, we knew it was time to go.
Thanks for a wonderful summer baseball evening, CC. And thanks for being part of Dexter's memories of his first ever baseball game.
