Celebration at the plate when Victorino homered!

 Well Spring Training is in full swing here in South West Florida - better known as the Grapefruit League.  Today I was lucky enough to see my "hometown" team the Philadelphia Phillie's play the Baltimore Oriels right here in Sarasota at the newly refurbished Ed Smith Stadium - new winter home to the Oriels - the place is just beautiful "they" did a wonderful job bringing the stadium back to it's original but up-dated glory all who were involved in the project should be so proud of the out come.  The day was a perfect one for baseball - lucky for me I wore my sun screen as it was hot and sunny!
