Roadtrip to Oblivion: 12 Baseball Games, 6 States, 10 Days (We will die?)



Okay, okay, I am probably not going to make a post about the Phillies- and Oakland A's game, which is a shame, because the rise and fall of the autocratic genius of Connie Mack, the owner and manager of the Philadelphia A's, who dominated Philadelphia sports from 1900s-1930s before beginning a long sad decline that eventually saw the A's leaving town.


But the good news is that tomorrow starts the epic roadtrip of Sam, myself, and Frank. We'll be out of town, on the road to Atlanta, Tampa, Orlando, Miami, and more. Check back here for pictures, stories, and musings of three very nerdy, very obsessed, and probably very stinky guys on our quest to see 12 baseball games in 10 days.


Here's the schedule
1. Fri July 1st 7PM Leave for Atlanta and book down through the night, arrive in morning.
2. Sat July 2nd Baltimore @ Braves 7pm--- Leaving for Tampa that night
3. Sun July 3rd Cardinals vs Rays 1:40; Clearwather Threschers vs Lakeland Flying Tigers 6pm
4. Mon July 4th Gulf Coast Phillies @ Gulf Coast Braves (Kissimee, FL) 12noon; drive to Miami to see Phillies @ Marlins 6PM
5. Tues July 5th fuck around in Miami, 7pm Phillies @ Marlins
6. Wed July 6th drive to Daytona- Tampa Yankees @ Daytona Cubs 12noon;(not far from Daytona) Clearwater @ Brevard County 7pm; drive to Savannah
7. Thur July 7th Greensboro Grasshoppers @ Savannah Sandgnats 7pm
8. Friday July 8th drive to Charleston: Delmarva Shorebirds vs Charleston Riverdogs 7pm
9. Saturday July 9th drive to Richmond: Harrisburg Senators vs Richmond Flying Squirells 7pm; drive to philly
10. Sunday July 10th Braves @ Phillies 



Feel free to drop us a line to see if we're still alive at any point. Because otherwise, we're going to pretend the outside world doesn't exist!
