Pence Leads Astros To Victory

I shot the Astros and the Cubs tonight. It was a pretty exciting night at the ballpark, with the Astros defeating the Cubs 4-2. All of the scoring occurred in the fourth inning. Cubs third baseman Aramis Ramirez hit a two-run homerun in the to of the fourth only to be overshadowed by Astros rightfielder Hunter Pence. In the bottom of the fourth Pence hit a grand slam, which ended up being the game winner. Hunter also had a double in the game. He is a great young player with a lot of talent. First baseman Lance Berkman also started a new hit streak tonight. The "Big Puma" is turning heads and making sure that the baseball world knows who he is.

Football Season Has Come Again

Friday, I attended the first mini camp of the Houston Texans. Their preparation for the 2008 season is underway. It was a great time to see their new draft picks including first round pick Duane Brown and former West Virginia running back Steve Slaton. Here is a shot of sefensive end Mario Williams as he works on his swim move. Mario is poised to have a great season this year. Remember, he was the number one draft pick overall, chosen over Reggie Bush and Vince Young. He is still looking to overcome the doubters that believe that he should not have been taken number 1.

What a Crazy Weekend!

This week was a pretty interesting one for me. Last Friday and Saturday, I went to watch the Astros and Brewers play on the diamond. I thought that that would be the finally of my weekend, but was I wrong. I got a call to travel up to Dallas to shoot Game 6 of the Dallas Stars and the San Jose Sharks. This was my first hockey game, so I was a little nervous upon arrival. It was an outstanding game that went into four overtimes! The Stars won the game on a goal by Captain Brenden Morrow. What a night! The crowd was extremely excited throughout the entire game and everyone was on the edge of their seat in anticipation of the game winning goal.
