Baseball at The Trop...It's been a while since I went on a vacation, but who knew that my vacation to Orlando would include shooting the Tampa Bay Rays...? After surviving the almost two hour drive from Orlando to Tampa, my family and I were greeted by the nicest staff I've ever encountered at a Major League ballpark. Before, during and after the game, the staff was very friendly and always happy to help (and to guide a first-time shooter at The Trop the right ways to go...). And as a photographer, it was a dream to shoot in a dome, because I didn't have to deal with the sun, or changing lighting conditions. It wasn't the absolute best lighting, but at least I didn't have to worry about it. But... on to the game... Being it was the last game before the All-Star break, the two representatives from the Rays were presented with their All-Star jerseys.
And All-Star Houston Astros' second baseman Jose Altuve was a joy to watch, in the field, and at the plate, hitting a home run in the top of the 4th inning.
But it was Tampa that came out on top... in the bottom of the 5th inning, Grady Sizemore hits a force-out ground ball, but Jake Elmore scores on the play, making the score 4-3, which held up to the end.
I had a great time shooting the game, and I have to say once again, thanks to the staff of The Trop for being so awesome during my time there. Click here for the full gallery of shots from this game.
