Jared, Ian, Jere, and Jana are settled in for the game.

And you just gotta have a hot dog and french fries at a baseball game.

A boy scout group carried the flag unto the field.

The coaching staff, Cylo, and an announcer listen as a mother and daughter sing The Star Spangled Banner.

Play Ball!

There were a variety of activities between innings.  Here two friends are given oversized boxing gloves.  I think it was a tie.

By seventh inning stretch Jana was ready for a funnel cake.  I was glad she shared a few bites with her grandma.

Dragging the field.

A home run by Matt Watson secured a win for the Barnstormers.

The win brought the 7,012 fans to their feet, along with the ear-shattering sound of cow bells.  There were lots of high-fives, handshakes, and other modes of celebration among the Barnstormers team.

The evening closed with a beautiful fireworks display.

…and so ended a beautiful Friday evening.
