Baseball At Waters Field

Growing up in Vienna for me meant being a baseball fan. The nights are too numerous to count when Dad would say "Honey, I think we need some milk".

So we'd hop in the car, head down to Vienna and look for the lights at Waters Field. Because if the lights were on, that meant a baseball game was being played. You never knew who might be playing - sometimes it was Babe Ruth, sometimes American Legion, sometimes just a pick-up game.

We'd catch a few innings . . .

And then it would be time to run over to High's, grab some milk, and head home.

Ah - those were the days!

If you like baseball (and who doesn't!), then the place to be tomorrow is Waters Field in Vienna! Three great games - three great match-ups - in the DC Sports Fan Private School Baseball Challenge. Here's who you'll see playing:

• Noon: Paul VI vs. St. Stephen's/St. Agnes
  
• 3:00 PM: St. Stephen's/St. Agnes vs. Flint Hill, 3:00
  
• 6:00 PM: Paul VI vs. Flint Hill, 6:00

Each team playing won their respective conference last year (WCAC, MA & IAC) - so it will be a great day for baseball in Vienna!

(And if you need an excuse to get out of the house, just tell your spouse you need to pick up some milk. Highs is no longer there, but Safeway is just down the street!)
