The Scoreboard is Ready for the Tin Caps and Loons while the players get ready with batting practice and fielding drills
Always fun to get closer to watch batting practice
BP from behind the plate
While players at the plate hit BP, players in the OF are shagging balls
And while I was in the OF, I couldn’t help myself picking up a batting practice HR
My favorite part of pregame at the ballpark, dragging the infield, preparing the mound, and chalking the lines
The bullpen is waiting for the starting pitcher to warm up
Here is the sign dedication for “Collins Corner” (in the left field corner)
The picture cuts off the final words which read: “second winningest manager in the Mets’ franchise history”

Aug. 23 (UPI) — A North Carolina man who won a $250,000 prize from a scratch-off lottery ticket said he only bought the $5 ticket because he needed quarters to do laundry.
Juan Garcia, 22, of Durham, told North Carolina Education Lottery officials he stopped at University Market in Durham because he needed quarters to do laundry.
Garcia bought a $5 Mega Bucks Limited Edition ticket to receive his change, and ended up scratching off a $250,000 prize.
“I was in disbelief,” Garcia said. “I kept seeing zeros.”
Garcia said his winnings will help him care for his 6-month-old daughter.
“This is definitely a huge step toward our one-day dream home,” he said.
