The Trop

Yesterday we covered the Rays game it was my first time covering a baseball game it went pretty well. Thankfully i sat next to Ed Encina, sports writer for the St. Pete Times, so he helped me out a lot. It was a nice crowd considering it was a Rays game of 20,000-plus. It looked like more but from the press box you can't see the entire stadium so you have to take that into consideration. We had a sports check on the field from Leon Carter, executive editor of ESPN New York. He attempted to give us one when we left the stadium but luckily Shemar was upstairs taking pictures so we were saved.
