MIT non-geek

Yesterday I went with some friends to the Giants vs Padres game at Pac Bell Park. Our group consisted of MIT alums trying to catch a glimpse of Jason Szuminski, Padres relief pitcher, and the first MIT alum to go from MIT to the majors.

We knew from the start that probably the only way we'd see Szuminski pitch was if the Padres were getting blown out, so when the Padres quickly scored 3 runs in the first inning, we were a little bummed. In the end, we saw pretty much every other San Diego relief pitcher except Szuminski (Linebrink, Oropesa, Otsuka, Hoffman), but luckily the Giants made it a pretty good game in the middle innings, with a couple homers from Bonds and Feliz, so we weren't too disappointed. I guess we'll have to try again when the Padres come back to town.
