Getting The Feel

Today was my fifth and final spring training game for 2016. In fact, these 5 games were my first spring training games in 3 years. It is nice to get the feel of baseball as a director before the grind of the regular season begins. This was a fairly smooth game/telecast as were the first four shows. The most distracting events of the day occurred every time the program monitor went to black. The coord in Houston told us that the signal never went black so we knew it was the monitor. Even so, when the monitor went black which it did frequently, it proved to be a bit distracting even though we knew it was just the monitor. Oh well, on to the regular season. Opening day is April 3rd in Pittsburgh. I'm looking forward to my first blog of the 2016 regular season.
