DAY DATE

So I was put to the test more in the last three weeks than throughout the whole trips.  I logged over 10000 Miles on the road from July.1 – July.14/2015.  It was worth it and I have had a few days of rest now to gather momentum for the second half run.

I have altered my schedule to accommodate a lot more rest in the 2nd half as I will be making lots of more media appearances on TV and radio.

I added some games in New York City, Baltimore and Washington,  and took some games away from Boston and Philadelphia.

As of this date, I have eaten 44 hotdogs, drank 48 beers, took down 100 energy drinks, and 4 gallons of coffee.  I have  logged 45,000 Miles by air, ground and public transport.  I have used 22 of 40 free rental days.  The Buick Verano I just returned put on 12,500 Miles of that alone.  I now have a 2015 Chevrolet Cruze for the 2nd half that I will venture on similar mileage with...

So far I am above the budget line for my $22, 500.00 projection by about $100.

I apologize for not keeping up with the blogging, however there were many nights in the last 2 weeks where I had no time to spare. There was also a contingency of extra interviews and media I have done that wasn’t part of the original plan.  I hope to be more prolific in the 2nd half.  I do plan on writing a book on this whole journey.

I completed an awesome doubleheader with Great American and Busch Stadium July.1, then also did the feat with a Wrigley and Us Cellular Field doubleheader two days later.  I was privy to a Wrigley natural day/night double on July 7th, and will be doing a two for one move on July.17th with Us Cellular Field.

Currently there are 16 more doubleaheaders listed in the second half.

There is still no park I haven’t made it for the game. The most impressive feat was driving 1313 Miles from Coors Field to Safeco Field in order to his the 1st pitch in Seattle.  I have now done 7 trips of more than a 1000 Miles this year.
