Great pics and a great game. I was there with my 3 year old son as well. If you plan to take her to more games, I'd suggest looking at these spring games and then in the fall. Even up in Detroit, it can get hot in the summer. Hot + kids = long long game (or short if you give in to go home in the 5th).

Nice pick up on the game ball, Mags 2,000 hit game ball will be worth a bit more than the $35 pre-order price. Sorry I don't get on here more often, I'd have met up with you at the game.

If you plan for other games, Sundays are great and the kids can run the bases after the game (kids club membership is well worth the price to get in the kids club line; which goes 1st). Another good idea is the 8/22 game which is the on field photo day. You won't get pictures with all of the players, but about the half the team if you get there right away and land a good spot in the front row. The pictures with the kids and players look awesome signed also and are worth more than any collectible in my book.

Let me know if you need any other info.

This was a very fun thread to read. Thanks to everyone who posted!

I had experienced this game from the other side, overcast day in Minnesota, listening to my Twins on the radio, getting shut out..... Now I do feel a little better about it I guess.

glad you both had a great time.....those photos are priceless!! Her asleep in the car seat says it all!!! Dont forget to check your hologram number on the baseball....most balls from the tigers this season are going to detail the ball right to the event where it was taken out of play...
