The Kid Zone is at the end of the 1st baseline on the concourse level. The stadium was built for possible expansion to the double A level. The two black labs are owned by the GM. Miss Babe Ruth picks up the bats during one of the home innings. She gets real excited when she hears the crack of the bat. She sits behind the green protector while waiting. At another time she carries a bucket of baseballs out to the umpire, who gives her some treats. Master Yogi Berra as a between inning activity chases down a baseball that has been fired into the outfield. SPAZ is the between inning announcer on the field, who is Spaz 24-7. One between inning activity, the Fisher Grill Hamburger Stack, has a couple dressed in hamburger buns. One lays on the ground and the other races back and forth putting the hamburger and making on the one on the ground. At the end that one jumps on top. Another between inning activity is the Neese's Country Sausage sausage package race from 1st around the bases to home. The last three pictures show first the grounds crew starting to put out the tarp, which was down before the 1st storm hit. Then the rains came down.
