Friend and photojournalist Chris Hall spent a little time taking snaps around the ground yesterday. I think he captures the fun and atmosphere of the game pretty darn well. Hopefully there’ll be more pics to follow these.

The C’s bullpen awaits the ball. As best we can tell, that’s (from front to back) Steven-Ryder Carter, Mike Mitchell, someone we can’t see, Shawn Martinez, Clay Tichota, and someone else we can’t see.
